As for the current The Division players, they can now enjoy the final piece of DLC, entitled Last Stand, which is available on all platforms as a part of season pass or in standalone purchase.

Last Stand introduces players to a new way of experiencing the Dark Zone through a session-based adversarial game mode featuring clear objectives and win conditions while incorporating key elements of the Dark Zone such as PvE enemies and landmarks. Players will be on a team of eight Division agents fighting against a team of either Rogue agents as they attempt to capture the tactical terminals. Last Stand will also include a new incursion, Stolen Signal.

What’s more, the game has also received Update 1.6 today, which is free for all players. The patch adds expanded Dark Zone map with three new areas, new Contamination events, unique weapons and landmarks, Dark Zone leaderboards, and the Legendary difficulty mode.
