It is time for a new Shield in The Division! We are excited to announce the sixth Shield, Phoenix, live tomorrow across all platforms!

The Phoenix Shield is linked to Expansion 2: Survival, so we are also making Survival free for all players for a limited time – starting tomorrow, August 16th to Wednesday, August 22nd.

Found in the first tab of the Dossier, Division Shields are a group of unique commendations that reward both long term and new players for completing very specific challenges across The Division. Remember to check back in, since an additional Shield will become available every month for you to unlock.

CURRENT SHIELDS

• New! Phoenix - Extract 5 items, survive for 5 hours, and kill 5 Hunters in Survival
• Sacred - Complete 10 phases, get to level 10 and kill 10 Hunters in the Underground

THE DIVISION REWARDS

• One Audio Log

THE DIVISION 2 REWARDS

As Agents collect Shields, you will be placed in a tiered system. The more Shields earned in The Division, the higher the tier you reach, the more rewards you will receive in The Division 2. A higher tier grants players more rewards:

• Tier 1 - Weapon Skin
• Tier 2 - Outfit and Patch
• Tier 3 - Emote and Gear Dye
• Tier 4 - Taunting Emote and Backpack Trophy

Be safe out there in the blizzard, Agents!
