Each of the four different areas culminates in a spectacular showdown which provides the player with a new skill to add to their arsenal – including the return of the much lauded sticky bomb. Each one of the lieutenants holds their own portion of the city, which you must explore in order to find their location. It doesn’t capture the same moody aesthetic that the first game accomplished, but it does win points for the sheer spectacle of a barren and destroyed New York city.īefore you can get to Keener though, you have to take down his four lieutenants in a gameplay loop that feels somewhat similar to last year’s Forsaken expansion in Destiny 2. Cars are overturned, mud and swamps fill some streets and there are a few new additions to the world including a huge washed up tanker. New York is looking a little worse for wear this time after suffering at the hands of a brutal hurricane before the players arrival. Many of the game’s striking visuals, of empty and barren landmarks across New York and Washington, are now looking closer to real life than they could have ever possibly imagined as a result of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.Īs you likely guessed from the title, Warlords of New York takes players back to the epicentre of the Black Friday chemical attack some eight months later.
It’s been a long and somewhat unusual year since The Division 2 released, and the latest DLC release, Warlords of New York is probably far more topical than developers Ubisoft were hoping for.
