Over the course of its first year, The Division 2's post-launch campaign fleshed out its gameplay and narrative set within a post-collapse Washington D.C, where you faced off against growing enemy factions and amassed more loot. But now, players are in for a return trip to where it all started: New York City.        Set for release on March 3 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, Warlords of New York is the first major expansion for The Division 2. As a $30 standalone expansion that marks the beginning of Year 2 content, it focuses on a mission to retake the ruins of Manhattan from a cabal of rogue agents.

You can now harvest a new ore called Ancient Debris. Minecraft's latest update, the 1.16 "Nether Update," has arrived and with it comes a bevy of additions such as new locations and ores. It's a huge update and the patch notes are extensive, so there's a lot to dig into. First up is the inclusion of new crafting materials. The Nether Update introduces Ancient Debris, a "fancy new ore" that can be mined in the lower depths of the Nether. Once gathered, you can refine the material to create netherite scrap which, when combined with gold ingots, can be turned into netherite ingots. The new patch also adds new wood materials, soul soil (which burns a blue flame), additional blocks, and more.
