Tom Clancy's The Division has already smashed records, with 6.4 million gamers participating in its beta version. There is much hype surrounding the open-world title, which explores New York City in the aftermath of a pandemic that led to the collapse of United States government within just days.

Due to the hype, gamers have been wanting to get to know more about the title before its scheduled release on March 8 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and the PC. Data mining is one of the ways that users can extract information regarding an unreleased game, and a redditor by the name of itsgamerdoc did just that.

One of the most significant pieces of information that itsgamerdoc extracted was the fact that the game has 26 story missions, and with the two missions included in the beta version taking about 20 minutes to 30 minutes each to accomplish, that translates to a total playing time of about 10 hours to 11 hours.

The seemingly low number of missions has already received criticism online, but it should be noted that some of the missions could take far longer than 30 minutes to accomplish. In addition, the missions are designed to be replayed by gamers on higher difficulties to be able to acquire more experience points and loot.

In comparison, Halo 5 only had 15 story missions, Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 only had 11 missions and Destiny was released with only 20 missions. Destiny features strikes and raids though, and it is not yet confirmed if Tom Clancy's The Division will also be providing gamers with other modes aside from the story missions.

Lastly, the game features The Dark Zone, where gamers can spend a lot of time in the endgame. Gamers also have the option to wander around outside this zone, which would add to the amount of time that gamers can spend in playing the title.

In addition to the number of missions, itsgamerdoc was able to so far find 138 total weapons in the game, along with the names of the 26 missions. Interesting mission titles include "Kill The Tank," and there are also some reference to other vehicles such as waterplanes and helicopters.

All the data is fun to look over, and ignites further fire into the excitement for the launch of Tom Clancy's The Division.
