The Escalation Apparel Event in The Division 2 is now live. In this event, players can collect 33 new cosmetics, including new outfits for Birdie, Dunne, Conley, Ward, and Espinoza, as well as a new uniform for Johnson.
Event Mechanics
The new Escalation Apparel Event is open to all players who have the Warlords of New York expansion, with the New York campaign already completed. Upon login, they will get a free Apparel Event Key, which can be used to open Apparel Caches that contain the cosmetics mentioned above.
Players can get keys in a variety of ways. They can earn an Apparel Event Key for every four SHD (Strategic Homeland Division) levels for free. Players are also awarded three keys just for owning the season pass. Plus, the keys can be purchased (or gifted) using Premium Credits.
Furthermore, The Division 2 players get additional rewards for completing the following:
- Bunny No No Backpack Trophy: for completing the "Espinoza" outfit
- Johnson Glasses: for completing the 5 event outfits
- Johnson Gloves: for completing 5 event outfits
- Johnson Uniform: for Cache completion (must be earned during the event)
The Escalation Apparel Event is now underway and will end on July 25. Once it closes, players have one week to spend all of their unused keys before they're gone forever.
