The gritty world of Tom Clancy’s The Division will be adapted into a tabletop role-playing experience. A collaboration was established to develop a tabletop RPG that explores the series' apocalyptic setting. This initiative was revealed, with a crowdfunding campaign scheduled to begin in April of 2026.

Initial offerings will include a beginner's box, essential manuals, a GM screen, figurines, and various premium versions.
