During E3 2015 , the game 's final release date and a player versus player area known as the Dark Zone were revealed . Its companion app was cancelled , as the company considered that the addition of drones will bring unfairness to the competitive multiplayer mode of the game . Unlike the previous E3 demo , Long Island , and Staten Island do not appear in the game at launch , while Brooklyn only appears in the opening hours of the game as the tutorial area . The beta was set to be released for the Xbox One in December 2015 and for Windows and PlayStation 4 in 2016 . On 7 December 2015 , Ubisoft announced that '' The Division '' s beta would be moved to " early 2016 " and that an Xbox One exclusive alpha would begin on 9 December 2015
