Gamers are no strangers to , but The Division 2 players are in a particularly awkward situation. Ubisoft has revealed that a development "error" has broken the shared-world shooter's build generation system, and thus the studio's ability to update the game. The team not only can't introduce the new season it delayed last week, but can't extend the outgoing one until it repairs the build functionality.
Ubisoft says it has made "good progress" in fixing the issue in recent days, and there are hints a solution is in sight. The company is of a three-hour "unscheduled maintenance" session as we write this, and it's using the downtime to fix that include an inability to make seasonal in-game purchases. The servers should be back online around 1PM Eastern if there are no complications.
The timing is particularly bad for this issue. Ubisoft recently in response to sinking revenue, and workers at its Paris studio last month to protest what they say are unfair working conditions. Things aren't going smoothly at the publisher, and it may be a while before there's a degree of stability.
