After months of silence and repeated delays, Ubisoft has announced that The Division Resurgence is preparing to restart test operations. Players can now pre-register for a chance to join this next testing phase, marking a new step forward for the long-awaited mobile entry in the Tom Clancy franchise.

A Rocky Development Timeline

The Division Resurgence was first revealed in May 2021 as a free-to-play standalone mobile game, promising a faithful adaptation of The Division’s tactical gameplay for smartphones. Set in an open-world New York City, the game is designed with both PvE and PvP modes, letting players tackle story-driven missions or face off against each other in urban combat.

While anticipation was high, the road to launch has been turbulent. Originally slated for Fall 2023, the game was delayed multiple times — first to early 2024, then to December 2024. In July 2024, Ubisoft announced that both Rainbow Six Mobile and The Division Resurgence were postponed indefinitely, citing the need to refine gameplay and meet market expectations. The news sparked concerns about Ubisoft’s financial outlook for FY25, and some fans even feared the project might be shelved.

Test Operations Restart — A Sign of Progress

Ubisoft’s decision to restart testing offers renewed hope. While a global release date is still unconfirmed, this new phase signals that development is moving again. Fans who have followed the game’s long journey can now look forward to hands-on previews that may clarify its current state and direction.

A Potential Player Favorite in the Mobile Shooter Space

The Division Resurgence carries strong potential. If Ubisoft delivers on its promise of immersive urban combat, seamless co-op, and strategic PvP, it could stand out in the crowded mobile shooter market.
