Mar 30, 2026At its core, this is a very ambitious and impressive video game that's a massive improvement on much of what the mobile platform offers, but it's weighed down and held back by the inclusion of the intrusive and demoralising mobile elements that continue to give the platform a bad rap. Does it work as a game to log into for 20 minutes a time while commuting to work? Without question. But could you sit down and play The Division Resurgence for hours, eventually clocking hundreds of hours into the gameplay as is easily the case with its console and PC counterpart projects? No, it does not have the structure or legs to be such a title.

Apr 6, 2026I have enjoyed playing The Division: Resurgence, but it's a rediscovered joy of improving my character stats and churning through looter shooter missions. There's the foundations here for more, but with a low stakes main story, and too many points of friction through the UI and gameplay, the main thing it's made me want to do is go back and play the console games.
