The Division 2 Red Horizon Official Launch Trailer

The Division 2 Year 8 Season 3, Red Horizon, is now live, introducing the Cleaners to Washington, D.C. for the first time and expanding the faction’s presence beyond New York City. The new season adds seasonal modifiers, updated Dark Zone experiences, new Classified Assignments, gear and rewards, while Ubisoft also confirmed that crossplay is coming in November. The arrival of the Cleaners drives the season’s central conflict, with players facing Cleaner-controlled activities across the open world and a new Elite Kill Squad known as 95 Company.

The Cleaners Have Reached Washington, D.C.
Previously confined to New York City, the Cleaners are now operating throughout Washington, D.C. during Red Horizon. They’ll appear in open-world activities, take over Control Points, participate in Retaliations, and bring a new Elite Kill Squad called 95 Company into the fight.

Crossplay Arrives in November
Crossplay is coming to The Division 2 in November. Additional details will be shared at a later date, but the announcement marks one of the season’s biggest long-term updates.

Dark Zones Continue to Evolve
The PvE-focused Toxic Dark Zones introduced in Into the Dark are becoming a permanent part of the rotation with reduced toxicity mechanic and a greater emphasis on cooperative survival. Red Horizon also introduces a new Blackout Dark Zone where gear normalization is disabled, allowing players to use the full power of their SHD Watch, Expertise levels, and Prototype gear.

New Seasonal Gameplay and Content
Red Horizon introduces a new modifier system centered around a Pressure Gauge that rewards aggressive play and activates powerful buffs. The season also adds two Classified Assignments. The District Mall Inferno is under attack from Cleaners, and a fellow SHD Agent needs backup to complete his mission and make it out unscathed. The second Classified Assignment, the Georgetown Dead Zone, will go live later this season.

New gear such as the Ember Engine Gear Set, the Loaded for Bear Exotic gloves, and additional Season Pass rewards are also coming to help you fight the Cleaners and retake Washing D.C.

Turtle Beach Reveals the New Vulcan II XP Full-size Mechanical RGB Keyboard

Leading gaming accessories maker Turtle Beach Corporation (Nasdaq: TBCH), today revealed the all-new Vulcan™ II XP Full-Size Mechanical RGB Gaming Keyboard. Built on the award-winning Vulcan design, the Turtle Beach® Vulcan II XP combines hot-swappable TITAN HS mechanical switches for easy maintenance and replacement, refined typing acoustics, and premium construction in a full-size gaming keyboard engineered to deliver exceptional performance, customization and comfort.

At the heart of the Vulcan II XP are Turtle Beach TITAN HS mechanical switches, engineered to deliver smooth, consistent keystrokes with exceptional stability and long-term durability. Compatible with both 3-pin and 5-pin hot-swappable mechanical switches, it’s easy to experiment with new switch types, replace worn switches, or fine-tune your typing feel without soldering.

The Vulcan II XP is available with a choice of Linear or Tactile switches; each is tested for up to 50 million keystrokes. The TITAN HS Red Linear switches deliver smooth, low-friction keystrokes with minimal resistance for fast-paced competitive gaming, while the TITAN HS Brown Tactile switches provide a light tactile bump for confident, responsive feedback without sacrificing speed. Every keystroke is refined by factory pre-lubed switches and stabilizers working alongside integrated sound-dampening foam to reduce unwanted noise and vibration. The result is a smoother, quieter, and more satisfying typing experience that feels just as good during everyday use as it does in the middle of a match.

“With each generation of Vulcan, we’ve focused on giving players more features, performance, and customization. The new Vulcan II XP takes that even further while delivering the value the Vulcan line is known for,” said Cris Keirn, Chief Executive Officer, Turtle Beach Corporation. “Whether you’re climbing the ranked ladder, building your dream setup, or tackling everyday tasks, the Vulcan II XP delivers the features and personalization to help you get the most out of every experience.”

When the competition heats up, the Vulcan II XP keeps pace. Full N-Key Rollover (NKRO) and anti-ghosting ensure every keypress registers accurately, while ReacTap™ SOCD technology prioritizes the latest directional input for faster counter-strafing and more responsive movement. EASY-SHIFT[+]™ expands every key with customizable secondary functions, macros, and shortcuts, while Game Mode enables ReacTap and locks the Windows key to prevent accidental interruptions during gameplay. A dedicated multi-function media wheel delivers quick volume control, push-to-mute functionality, and Windows Wheel support for intuitive navigation and creative workflow control in compatible Windows applications.

Completing the experience is the iconic Vulcan low-profile body design, featuring a durable brushed aluminum top plate, vibrant per-key AIMO™ RGB lighting with Windows Dynamic Lighting support, a detachable left-side USB-C cable for cleaner cable management and portability, a detachable soft wrist rest, and dedicated media controls.

Turtle Beach’s Swarm™ II desktop software enables players to personalize RGB lighting, remap keys, create macros, and manage up to five onboard profiles. Broad compatibility with most third-party cross-shaped keycap sets provides even more opportunities to customize the keyboard’s look and feel, while synchronized lighting across compatible AIMO devices completes a premium keyboard engineered for performance and designed for personalization.

The Turtle Beach Vulcan II XP Gaming Keyboard is available for pre-order beginning August 26, 2026, at www.turtlebeach.com and participating retailers worldwide for an MSRP of $149.99/€129.99/£119.99, and launches October 25, 2026.

Division 2 DLC Title Revealed at Gamescom

During a Gamescom community panel, Ubisoft and Massive Entertainment offered fans a first look at the next major expansion for The Division 2, officially titled “Echoes of Central Park.” Alongside the reveal of the DLC’s key art and details on the game’s upcoming season, the developers outlined a distinctly darker, more horror-infused direction for the franchise.

While New York City has long served as a core backdrop for The Division, Central Park has remained one of its most prominent unexplored locations. In Echoes of Central Park, players will head to Manhattan’s Upper West Side to answer a mysterious distress call originating from within the overgrown, quarantined park. With no intelligence on what has transpired inside since the initial outbreak, Agents must investigate local mysteries and rally support before venturing into the unknown.

Key Highlights:

  • A Shift in Tone: The expansion leans heavily into themes of mystery and psychological fear, introducing a darker atmosphere while maintaining the franchise’s tactical Tom Clancy identity.
  • New Narrative & Setting: Set around the fearful Upper West Side, Agents face the unknown as they attempt to breach Central Park.
  • Gameplay-First Focus: The development team emphasized that the DLC is designed around substantial gameplay innovations rather than serving solely as a narrative expansion.

A full reveal detailing gameplay mechanics, features, and launch details is scheduled for September 24.

Razer Unveils the Base Station V3 Chroma

Razer™, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, today announced the Razer Base Station V3 Chroma, a smart RGB gaming headset stand with USB ports that sets immersion into motion with a single lift. The next evolution of Razer’s iconic headset stand pairs intelligent automation with dazzling Razer Chroma™ RGB lighting designed to elevate gamers’ gear and illuminate their gaming space.

The Base Station V3 Chroma joins Razer’s expanding Chroma ecosystem, following recent Chroma launches such as the Razer Soma Chroma and the Razer Seiren V3 Chroma, and extends connected, reactive lighting from the peripheral to the headset stand.

One Lift. Battle-Ready.

The standout new feature of the Base Station V3 Chroma is Seamless Headset Detection, which works with any headset compatible with Razer Synapse. Every time you lift the headset, a custom Razer Synapse profile takes over and switches Chroma RGB lighting, audio and mic inputs, launching games, triggering global shortcuts, and running macros.

A custom profile can be tailored to every scenario: a gaming profile that routes audio to the headset, launches a favorite title, and sets the battlestation aglow with game-reactive Chroma lighting; a streaming profile that fires up broadcast software and switches to on-air lighting; or a movie-night profile that dims the setup for total immersion.

Once the headset returns to the stand, everything reverts to the default setup, no clicks, no menus.

Hear the Game. See the Glow.

The Base Station V3 Chroma also doubles as an audio, lighting, and connectivity hub. Dual USB 3.1 ports connect headset dongles and other devices with ease, keeping cables and clutter off the desk.

Featuring immersive virtual 7.1 surround sound, possible through software enhancements, it unlocks a cinematic listening experience for any analog headset, bringing entertainment to life through realistic positional audio.

A 12-zone vertical RGB strip lights up the battlestation with 16.8 million colors and a full suite of effects, syncing seamlessly across other Razer Chroma RGB peripherals as well as more than 300 games and 500 devices from over 50 partners, bringing the entire setup to life in perfect harmony.

Built to Hold. Built to Last.

Designed for everyday gaming, the Base Station V3 Chroma pairs sturdy construction with thoughtful details built for the battlestation.

A curved, rubberized anti-slip ledge cradles the headset to keep the headband and padding from losing their shape, with a stable, secure hold built to support most headsets. Beneath it all, a felt anti-slip base grips on contact, keeping the entire setup firmly anchored.

One Stand. Total Command.

The Razer Base Station V3 Chroma combines intelligent headset detection, immersive virtual 7.1 surround sound, and advanced Razer Chroma RGB lighting in a sleek, and expanded connectivity design.

More than a headset stand, it is the smart command center that keeps gamers’ gear protected, their battlestation organized, and their gaming setup glowing in perfect sync.
