If you’re excited for Tom Clancy’s The Division, we might get to catch a glimpse on it soon enough according to industry insider Shinobi602, who is quite consistent in the credibility of the information provided by his sources.

This time around he mentioned that the beta is coming in March, and Xbox One users will get exclusive access at the beginning:

Asked how long the delay for other platforms will be, Shinobi answered “Not too long.”

This shouldn’t come too much as a surprise, considering that Ubisoft has been working with Microsoft quite closely in the past few months, after switching over from a previous marketing agreement with Sony for Watch_Dogs.

Of course, as usual, we should treat this kind of insider information with a grain of salt, and consider it a rumor for the moment, but hopefully we’ll get official word soon.
