Tom Clancy's The Division Makes Its Way to the Tabletop Gaming World as a Deeply Strategic Tabletop Role-Playing Game

The intense universe from Tom Clancy’s The Division will be adapted into a tabletop role-playing experience. A collaboration has been formed to create a TTRPG that explores the series' post-pandemic landscape. The project was revealed, with a crowdfunding campaign planned to begin in the spring of 2026.

"This project aims to deliver the series' unique suspense, strategic depth, and memorable setting to the tabletop, providing fans a new way to experience The Division through immersive storytelling and mission-based gameplay," reads an announcement.

Launch products will include a starter set, essential manuals, a Game Master screen, miniatures, and several premium versions.

Development on the RPG has been underway for approximately several years, and it is reportedly complete. The upcoming Kickstarter campaign will serve as a preorder system to access a broader audience, specifically in North America. Production will start immediately following the fundraiser, with deliveries expected for the latter part of 2026.

An Innovative Gameplay Mechanic: The GRIS System

A preview at the game's rules confirms it uses 10-sided dice predominantly through its proprietary GRIS system, promoting a streamlined and tactical style. Players leverage skills or traits to roll a handful of dice, typically from one to five d10s.

• Rather than adding results together, participants select a single “result die” from the group.
• This die is then compared against a set challenge number.
• Achieving a perfect 10 grants additional bonuses, such as extra damage or boosted support.

3. Any player knocked down must roll on a trauma table, potentially gaining persistent effects like trauma or mobility-impairing wounds.

A Ready-to-Play Adventure

A publicly available Quickstart Guide will be released soon. It includes a pre-made starting adventure called Ashes of Murray Hill. In this mission, the group spearhead the hunt for a lost doctor squad and work to stop an assault by the notorious Rikers faction, who have taken over that NYC neighborhood. More specifics and the complete product lineup are expected to be detailed near the Kickstarter start date.
