Ubisoft's online store is hosting a sale in honor of the Lunar New Year, including a flash sale on looter-shooter The Division 2, bringing the title's cost down by 80 to 85% depending on the system it's bought for. However, this particular deal is only available until January 22nd, 7PM PT, leaving a very short window of time to purchase the game for its current price.
On Xbox One and PlayStation 4, The Division 2 has had its usual $60 price tag brought down to $12, making for an 80% discount, and on PC, the game only costs $9, for a clean 85% off.
The Division 2 is a third-person, multiplayer looter-shooter, which sends players, or agents, into a hostile Washington DC, now a ruin after a deadly pandemic. The gameplay utilizes many staples of the looter-shooter subgenre, progressing via the collection of new weapons and apparel, in addition to experience based leveling system. Players then either work together in PVE, fight one another in PVP, or do a hectic mix of the two at the same time. Like many multiplayer looter-shooters, players of The Division 2 will likely get the most enjoyment out of the game if they have a group of friends playing it, or if they make friends in the game's community.
The Lunar New Year Sale also has several other great deals on a variety of Ubisoft titles. As examples, 2019 releases like Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint or Anno 1800 are 60 and 45% off, respectively, critically acclaimed platformer Rayman Legends is only $5, and classic first-person shooter Far Cry 2 is priced at $4. Merchandise and DLC are also on sale.
Here are links to each of the Division 2's store pages:
Tom Clancy's The Division 2 (PC) - $9.00
Tom Clancy's The Division 2 (Xbox One) - $12.00
Tom Clancy's The Division 2 (PS4) - $12.00

Any prospective buyers should know that these deals are only available on Ubisoft's own store, so The Division 2 is still its regular price on Steam for example. In addition, it's important to note that the deals listed above only include their standard editions. However, other versions of The Division 2, like the Gold Steelbook Edition for Xbox One and PlayStation 4, still have their respective 80 to 85% discounts applied.
For anyone who's had their eye on The Division 2, this might be the best chance to get it for a while.
The Division 2 is out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
