'The Division 2' Season 11 delayed because Ubisoft is locked out

Ubisoft has announced the next season of The Division 2 continues to be delayed, due to an issue that’s preventing the developer from issuing server or client-side updates.

In an argument published yesterday (February 9), Ubisoft announced that although it had been trying to fix a localisation issue that caused Season 11 to become delayed, it had unintentionally found another error that crashed the game’s build generation system.

“As a result, we cannot update the sport until this technique has been rebuilt,” shared Ubisoft.

“In the past, when a Season was delayed, we extended the previous Season’s activities,” explained Ubisoft. “Unfortunately, this is not possible in the present situation, once we cannot make server or client side updates until the build generation is restored.”

While Ubisoft continues to be able to “restore critical facets of the system” during the last four days, The Division 2 happens to be down for unscheduled maintenance for roughly three hours, suggesting the problem might have been resolved.

The update’s patch notes make no reference to The Division 2‘s build generation issue, instead listing numerous fixes to improve the game’s stability.

“We deeply appreciate your understanding and patience and will share our in-game compensation plan details soon,” said the studio, adding that it'll issue another update on the situation today (February 10).

It’s not the first time that Ubisoft has caused issues with its own games. Earlier within the month, it had been reported that Ubisoft had broken Steam Deck compatibility in many its games – including The Division 2 – by releasing an update for its third-party launcher.

In other gaming news, Ubisoft has announced that it'll be working with Northumbria Police to tackle “extreme cases” of toxicity in gaming.
