The Division 2 released a patch earlier today at 4:30 a.m EST. The patch went live on all the platforms and is focused on fixing bugs that were first encountered after the launch of the Warlords of New York expansion pack.
The update fixes a game-breaking bug where people were manually resetting seasonal manhunts to prevent loss progression. The patch disables the ability to do that entirely until developers find a more permanent solution. The update also fixes the bug where players will get multiple seasonal caches and too many keys from Hunter encounters. Hunter encounters’ puzzle reset issues are also fixed along with the lack of season XP from DZ activities.
You can read the complete patch notes below or on the official site.
