"It's another one of the great ways that we're really changing up what's been done previously in this genre."

During the first-ever The Division podcast on Soundcloud, developers from Ubisoft Massive revealed new details about the multiplayer game's PvP areas, called Dark Zones.

The Dark zones are separate from The Division's main campaign, allow players to fight head-to-head with the possibility of losing items if they're killed.

"It's another one of the great ways that we're really changing up what's been done previously in this genre," he said. "We want PvP to be important. A lot of times it's hard in a mainstream game it's hard to get people...people are a little averse to it, it can be a little freaky; it's generally very competitive."

"There's this added layer of, potentially, you can be engaged at any time from another player," Barnard said. "So what we really want to do is bring the fun components of PvP in other games in this genre and others; try to make the mechanics more positive so you never really are punished."

The Division launches this year for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, though a specific release date has not been announced.
