The specs indicate that this may not be as resource-hungry as some other open-world games, but the bigger question will be how well the PC port has handled. If the recent past is any indication, it could go either way.
A closed beta for the game will hit Xbox One first on January 28, followed by PC and PlayStation 4 on January 29. The only way to get in for sure is by pre-ordering the game.
The Division will release on March 8. The standard edition is priced at Rs 1,799 for PC and Rs 3,499 for consoles. You can pick them up from Amazon or Games the Shop.
