Tom Clancy's The Division is an online-only action role-playing video game developed by Massive Entertainment and published by Ubisoft, for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One. It is set in a near future New York City in the aftermath of a viral pandemic; the player, a Special Agent of the Strategic Homeland Division, is tasked with helping the group rebuild its operations in Manhattan, investigate the nature of the outbreak, and combat criminal activity in its wake. The Division is structured with elements of role-playing games, as well as cooperative and player versus player online multiplayer. This game also marked the debut of Massive and Ubisoft's Snowdrop game engine. Some of the game's characters are featured in XDefiant.

Released on 8 March 2016, Tom Clancy's The Division received generally positive reviews from critics. A sequel was released in March 2019.
