Since the game will no longer be released (as Ubisoft has officially announced that development has been stopped in favor of XDefiant and Rainbow Six), maybe Ubisoft won’t remove it from YouTube. And if they do, it’s already too late.
For example, the new episode of The Division was recently canceled by Ubisoft to focus on XDefiant. This game was already in the news earlier today when the French publisher announced the system requirements. But let’s get back to the canceled free-to-play game The Division. Someone posted on Twitter that they thought that with the cancellation of the game, their NDA (non-disclosure agreement) had ended, so they could say that they were paid to play the game and that they were a playtester in 2023. The feedback was something like “WTF is this?” and they jokingly thought that Ubisoft might have taken their comments seriously…
They then posted a picture of it, which if it showed real road signs, could have been a huge accident, because the signs are quite confusing: all way, no bicycles allowed, one way to the right, and then two yield to pedestrians signs for bicycles. It should be added that these are probably just temporary placeholder textures, but the order of these signs is really incomprehensible.
But @kran27_ responded to this chain of tweets on Twitter by capturing gameplay footage of the game and some builds of it, adding that this one image won’t be the only thing you see from Tom Clancy’s The Division Heartland. They weren’t kidding, as they uploaded a video of the game to YouTube shortly thereafter, but it wasn’t just any in-game footage either: they shared nearly four minutes of clean quality footage, although they did censor a few things. Still, it’s great to see what we could have expected from the deleted project.
In case the video has been deleted from YouTube, it is still available for download at the second link below.

assuming my nda is up so I can say I got paid to playtest this game last year and my feedback boiled down to “wtf is this” so guess they took my feedback https://t.co/WKFObQTRdi
