Ubisoft issues apology over The Division 2 'government shutdown' email
'We apologise for this error and the offensive subject line of the e-mail'

Ubisoft has moved to apologise for an email promoting the upcoming private beta for Tom Clancy's The Division 2, which joked about the US government shutdown.

People who are subscribed to the publisher's newsletter received the email yesterday (via ResetEra), which contained the following header: 'Come see what a real government shutdown looks like in the private beta.'

The Division 2 doesn't shy away from political nods. The game takes place in Washington D.C. in wake of a devastating pandemic that has crippled the nation, and also includes a fictional US president as one of its characters. In addition, the White House is featured in the game too, acting as your primary base of operations throughout.

Obviously, the email didn't exactly go down well with folk considering what's been happening across the pond. The most recent government shutdown was the longest in US history, and resulted in thousands of federal employees failing to receive paychecks over the Christmas period. Some are receiving back pay, although it's understandably a very sensitive topic.

'A marketing email promoting The Division 2 was sent in error today. This was a grave breakdown in process and we apologise for this error and the offensive subject line of the email,' said Ubisoft.

'We recognise the very real impact of the United States government shut down on thousands of people and did not intend to make light of the situation.'

The Division 2 is due out on March 15 for PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One.

Crash Team Racing remake footage.

Released on PS4, Xbone, and Switch on June 21st 2019.



I assume the PC release will come later as per the previous Crash remake; (although the Spyro remaster has yet to be announced for PC).

Older builds of Shadow Warrior sources unearthed and released:



Yeah, SW already open sourced in 2005, source code of 1.2 version. But apparently it didn't have proper multiplayer functionalities, reason Redux doesn't have multiplayer. I guess these releases of older builds are important for that, and of course, historical reasons.
