    Due to technical limitations by previous generation consoles, The Division is currently not in development for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. The game was built from the ground up specifically designed for the the next generation consoles and PC.

    Put the old systems to rest. No more wasting developers time on old platforms. Let's move forward and push the limits of gaming.

    It can work, if Ubisoft reduce the game graphic to the system best limit like 15% less graphic and make is slightly smaller and rest can be installed and still be a massive game that can be in 1080p 30fps.

    it is not just the graphics, the new consoles (Xbox One and PS4) are in their internal structure a lot similar to PC than the old consoles, that makes the development of multiform-games a lot easier. Also the management is a lot simpler to support only 3 "similar" platforms than if you have 5 platforms.

    No it is time to move on - it simply makes no sense to support the old consoles.

    Exactly, it's already about time. And such a game like The Division goes over the capacities of last gen consoles.
    Makes it downgrade a lot, content, as graphics. The game how it is being made now, the old consoles aren't capable of.

    To support old consoles, it will cost time again, will need downscales and optimising.
    Playing The Division on PS4, Xbox One and PC gives you the best experience and a lot of other advantages, imo.

    The old consoles have reached their limit, after years and years, it's time to move on like JokerUnique mentioned.

    // edit // In fact, GTA V, a massive world, ran at 720p, not the same game and same engine, though has its similarities to The Division as open-world with lot of content, especially the immersion and details the world of The Division has to offer. GTA V used the last gen consoles as kind of a beta run and using the time to come closer to the next gen console releases and switched to them.

    There was a press release not too long ago that said moving forward Ubisoft would not be publishing new IPs on older generation systems. Id have to dig it up though. I think it was originally in one of the earnings calls from last year.

    Hello

    could you explained more and send my feedback/ request. I still hoping for one more Tom Clancy game on Xbox 360 and PS3, Also the game isn't a new IP a brand that exist on those platforms. Its still worth it. Tell them the developers before gamescon 2015.

    It's not coming out for those systems, plus The Division is a new IP because there's never been one of it's kind before.

    It's likely not going to be developed for last gen consoles. They are outdated at some point and reached their wear and tear.
    Definitely makes more sense to move along and upgrade the console in case.

    We can't keep us stuck in the same outdated generation at a certain point.
    Though a CommunityDev might give you a final answer.
