Tom Clancy's The Division Is Coming to the Tabletop as a Brutally Tactical Tabletop Role-Playing Game

The gritty universe from Tom Clancy’s The Division is being adapted into a tabletop role-playing experience. A partnership has been formed to create a TTRPG that explores the series' apocalyptic landscape. The project was revealed, with a funding drive planned to launch in April of 2026.

"This project will bring the series' unique suspense, tactical intensity, and memorable setting to the table, providing fans a new way to engage with The Division through immersive storytelling and player-driven missions," states an announcement.

Initial offerings are set to feature a starter set, essential manuals, a Game Master screen, figurines, and several deluxe editions.

Development on the game has been in progress for approximately several years, and it is confirmed to be complete. The forthcoming crowdfunding effort will serve as a pre-launch sales platform to reach a broader market, particularly in North America. Production will start immediately following the fundraiser, with deliveries projected for the latter part of 2026.

A Streamlined Tactical System: The GRIS System

A preview at the system confirms it employs 10-sided dice exclusively through its new GRIS system, promoting a fast-paced and strategic approach. Agents leverage skills or traits to roll a handful of dice, usually from one to five d10s.

• This die is then measured against a target difficulty.
• Rolling a perfect 10 triggers additional bonuses, such as increased harm or boosted support.

A Novel Health Mechanic

The way health is managed introduces a compelling thematic twist. Agents have a injury limit; sustaining too much damage weakens their capabilities by decreasing the size of their dice pool.

An Introductory Adventure

A free Quickstart Guide will be released in the near future. It contains a ready-to-play introductory scenario titled Ashes of Murray Hill. In this scenario, the group spearhead the search for a lost doctor squad and work to stop an attack by the violent Rikers faction, who have seized control of that Manhattan district.
