Tom Clancy's The Division 2 is an online action role-playing video game developed by Massive Entertainment and published by Ubisoft. The sequel to Tom Clancy's The Division (2016), it is set in a near-future Washington, D.C. in the aftermath of a smallpox pandemic, and follows an agent of the Strategic Homeland Division as they try to rebuild the city. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Snowdrop. We test using the Ultra preset, but with V-Sync disabled, DX12 API.

Moving onto The Division 2. Frame rates are higher in this game, averaging 108FPS at 1080p. This puts the RTX 3060 neck-and-neck with the RX 5700 XT, while it's a 10% improvement over the 2060 Super. Compared to vanilla 2060, we're talking a 21% FPS increase.

The game is still very smooth at 1440p too, with an average of 71FPS here. That makes the RTX 3060 18% faster than RX 5700, while it's 27% faster than the RTX 2060, which is one of the biggest margins we will see between those two GPUs.
