Resurgence Specific Lore

Delve into the rich lore of The Division: Resurgence. Discover the story, factions, and events that shaped the post-outbreak world of New York City.

Tom Clancy's The Division Resurgence, often referred to as The Division Resurgence or The Division Mobile, is a third person RPG built for iOS and Android. It follows a free to play model and features a standalone story set within the world of Tom Clancy's The Division.

Resurgence takes players back to Manhattan during the early days of the Green Poison outbreak. The story runs alongside the events of The Division and follows a new Division agent, specifically one belonging to the first wave, operating across updated areas of the city, such as Midtown. It builds on existing lore with new missions, new factions, and fresh perspectives on the initial collapse. It does not serve as a bridge between Tom Clancy's The Division and Tom Clancy's The Division 2.

The agent is activated as a member of the first wave of Division agents after the release of the Green Poison, a contagious smallpox-based disease that contaminated U.S. dollar bills, and deployed to help escort local community leaders to safety alongside fellow agent, Sarah Kelly, as New York descends into anarchy. After helping secure the leaders, the agents then learn that Joint Task Force members have been overwhelmed and their equipment, consisting of heavy machine guns and rockets, have been stolen by the assailants, who are now attacking Trinity Hospital. Working their way through the New York Stock Exchange, the agents arrive at the hospital to find that several of the civilians present have been taken hostage by gang members and were taken to Liberty Island. After securing the rest of the hospital occupants, the agents push towards Liberty Island's cargo yard, where the companion agent, Sarah Kelly, is injured, leaving the agent to push forward. Onboard a docked ferry, the agent takes down the gang's leader, Jax, but is forced to jump off the ship when Jax detonates explosives laid on the ferry.

Later, they wake up at the Base of Operations in Midtown, where it is revealed that most other first wave Division agents have either died or went AWOL leaving the agent as one of a small group of survivors. While a second wave of Division agents have dealt with most emerging threats in the absence of the first wave, more threats remain for the agent to assist with.
