Since the Season 4 End of Service launched at the end of 2020, The Division 2 stalled by recycling its seasonal content (it would have been better to make it permanent in this case…), but out of order.

Finally, here is what it says the game team about this Season 9 :
Greetings, officers!
Today, we are pleased to present our new season for The Division 2, “Secret Alliance”.
In “Secret Alliance”, the team will refine the structure of the hunt in order to offer an episodic narrative within The Division. Instead of exploring the dozen neighborhoods of Washington, players will see the gameplay take place in a significantly reduced area of the game which will give us the opportunity to offer concentrated storylines and avoid repetitions of a season. to the other.
WHAT IS THE SECRET ALLIANCE ?
We believe The Division’s main message and storyline shouldn’t be hidden behind the interconnected stories of a multitude of collectables. “Secret Alliance” opens with a cutscene flashback depicting the immediate aftermath of the confrontation with Faye Lau at Camp White Oak. The story immediately picks up at this point, as Kelso, Benitez and Rhodes all have to relearn how to live after what happened.
This moment acts as a catalyst for the future of the Division and the addition of cinematics should make it possible to clarify the issues and the motivations. We’re taking this new approach to show players the fluctuating motivations and feelings of our main characters.
In order to provide players with a safe space to delve into our story, these main story collectables will now be given to players during an interaction with Kelso at the Base of Operations when a stalking target will have been eliminated. This specific item discount will help players avoid missing out on essential story elements.
NEW TARGETS
The “Secret Alliance” hunt focuses on a new gallery of high level enemies, except this time it’s not about renegades… Instead, we’re going to witness the evolution of the True Sons following the death of Antwon Ridgeway. A charismatic new leader has emerged from the ranks of the True Sons, and the latter decide to take their operation to the level of the whole country. During this time, a new leader bearing the name of Captain Lewis will join Washington DC to accomplish a secret mission there.
Personality-wise, the new lieutenants and primary target range from likeable to monstrous. The ideology and tactics of the True Sons have evolved, which has the effect of beginning to alienate some of their more zealous members, but also attracting a new wave of cruel opportunists eager to join such a powerful army. so oppressive…
The internal conflicts of this next generation of True Sons will bring to light the complexities of a world in turmoil and uncover for the first time a new threat destined to escalate.
MISSION INVASIONS
“Secret Alliance” will also introduce a new type of content. This system is our first attempt to significantly improve the flexibility and variety of our future content.
Each of the tracking lieutenants will invade one of the main missions of the Washington DC campaign. These mission invasions will become more frequent in future sessions as we expand the possibilities of the system. For now, this gives us the opportunity to repopulate some missions with the True Sons, who have invaded the site for their own purposes.
It’s all for now ! We hope you’re looking forward to all of the improvements we’re currently making to the seasons as well as the game’s story systems.
Finally, to repopulate the servers, Ubisoft will be hosting a free-to-play weekend from Friday, May 13 through Sunday, May 15 on all platforms, namely PS4, Xbox One, PC and Stadia, the game being of course playable on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Well, it will only be the base title, without the extension Warlords of New York. Computer players can also pre-download it since last night, while those on Xbox will have to have a subscription. Xbox Live Gold to enjoy.
If ever the game tempts you then it is always sold on Amazonbut you will have to pay full price DLCs to have access to all its content, since it is only available on download platforms.
