Ubisoft's began the marketing blitz for Tom Clancy's The Division - its upcoming open world shooter that's apparently peppered with role-playing game elements. When the title was originally shown years back at the end of one of the French company's E3 press conferences, no one was quite sure what to make of it, but thanks to our buddies over at Eurogamer, we've finally got a good look at what the release actually consists of.

Our network pals captured 14 minutes of gameplay and are keen to share their thoughts. Meanwhile, we're a bit torn having watched the footage. We're intrigued by the RPG mechanics, and comparisons with Destiny have caught our attention, but we reckon that the world and characters all look flat, predictable, and, well, just a bit lifeless. Here's hoping that the action can hold it all together.

Of course, you may totally disagree, so watch the gameplay for yourself and then feed us your opinion in the comments section below.
