The Division Beta Receives Extension
Having fun exploring post-biological attack New York and mowing down punks and other players? Well, Ubisoft's got some good news for you then: the beta for The Division has been extended by 24 hours.
Originally set to end on February 1, the beta has been extended until February 2 at 6 a.m. PST/ 6 a.m. EST. The announcement was made on Ubisoft's forum, with the reason for the extension given as a way to "allow everyone who has access to fully enjoy the Beta." It's worth noting this news closely follows Ubisoft announcing that it could no longer guarantee beta access to people who have purchased the game recently.

Our Take
Regardless of the pre-order snafu it's cool, if not exactly surprising, that Ubisoft is giving more folks time with the beta.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
