- We have spotted that Ubisoft has put up several new job listings for The Division 3.
- The studio is looking to hire developers for major roles related to game design, animation, AI, etc.
- This development suggests the team is now expediting work on the third-person shooter as it continues to hire more people.
Ubisoft is currently working on multiple ambitious projects as part of its roadmap for the future. Despite ongoing struggles, the likes of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, Rayman Legends Retold, and more have given fans reasons to be excited about the studio’s future output.
At the same time, Ubisoft has had other projects in the works for a while. The gaming giant confirmed work on The Division 3 as early as 2023, and according to job listings spotted by Tech4Gamers, the gaming giant finally appears to be expediting work on the project.
Why it matters: Ubisoft has clearly outlined live-service as a huge part of its future goals, and The Division series’ long-lasting nature makes it a perfect candidate to fulfill this role.
At the time of writing, Ubisoft has put up 7 new job listings specifically for The Division 3.
These include ads for a Lead Game Designer, Senior AI Game Designer, Animation Director, and more. Needless to say, these are major roles that are central to the development of any project.
The number of new job ads and the degree to which they influence development suggest Ubisoft may have moved The Division 3’s development to a new phase. This is also plausible since Massive Entertainment wrapped up work on Star Wars Outlaws’ Nintendo Switch 2 port late last year, setting the team up to expedite The Division 3’s development.
While the job listings don’t reveal anything too special for now, the Lead Game Designer ad does confirm that Ubisoft intends to pursue the game as a live-service project.
You will drive the design and execution of key Social and Online features, while helping shape the foundations required to support the game as a live experience.
