Millions of gamers are exploring Tom Clancy’s The Division this week, examining every inch of the recently launched shooter’s map for Easter eggs, interesting destinations and the loot they need to overcome the game’s toughest challenges. Thankfully, players are usually willing to share their findings with the rest of the game’s community, as was the case with a set of hidden weapon caches discovered by a The Division player on Wednesday night.
The latest discovery in The Division comes courtesy of reddit user johyongil, who says he discovered hints to each cache’s location while perusing the game’s official website. Apparently, fans have the option to complete missions in the Agent Intel section of The Division site, unlocking a series of images that reveal the locations of weapon caches hidden throughout Manhattan. Johyongil apparently finished one of these missions but a little URL tinkering is all it took to uncover three more cache locations.
The community is still trying to figure out what exactly to expect from each cache. Despite looking like the ammunition boxes spread throughout Manhattan, each crate does seem to reward players with a firearm. Some users have reported finding blue-quality weapons in the crates, including assaults rifles like the military-issue SCAR, but others say they’ve only retrieved low-level gear that wasn’t of much use to them anymore. So don’t go hunting for the crates if you’re expecting to find the best loot in the game but the hunt seems like a perfect diversion for who just needs something to do in The Division.
