Introducing Gifting
With the holidays here, we are kicking off the newest Apparel Event with a new feature—gifting. Starting now, you have the option to purchase Apparel Event keys with Premium Credits and directly send them to your friends and clan members! To start gifting keys, navigate to the Apparel Cache menu and choose "gift". If you are receiving gifted keys, you will have a pop-up notification waiting for you in the Apparel Cache menu. Happy gifting to all!

Note that Event keys can only be gifted while the Event is active until January 7th. In addition, you can only gift the maximum number of keys needed to complete the Apparel Event.

We would also like to remind you of the gifting feature, where you have the option to purchase Apparel Event keys with Premium Credits and directly send them to your friends or clan members!

To gift keys, head to the Apparel Cache menu and choose "gift". If you have received gifted keys, you will have a pop-up notification waiting for you in the Apparel Cache menu.

Note that Event keys can only be gifted while the Event is active. In addition, you can only gift the maximum number of keys needed to complete the Apparel Event.

Introducing Textiles
There has been some feedback around receiving duplicates in Standard Apparel Caches, and we want to improve the system to address some of your frustration. Specifically, we understand that receiving XP for duplicates in Standard Caches does not feel rewarding, and we are introducing a new type of currency in place of XP in the near future. Introducing Textiles!

With every duplicate received in Standard Apparel Caches, you will automatically receive a portion of Textiles instead of XP. Once you collect enough Textiles, you will be able to use this currency to eventually make direct purchases of majority of the items on the in-game store!

We hope this upcoming change will allow you a more predictable path to obtaining some existing apparel and target specific items.

As always, you still have the option to directly purchase cosmetics with Premium Credits through the in-game store.

The Legacy Cache
If you are looking for more apparel options using Premium Credits, we are providing a new type of cache containing a selection of older items. Introducing the Legacy Cache, available in-game now!

Priced at 100 Premium Credits, this is a new opportunity if you aren't necessarily targeting something specific but would like more apparel previously available. If you are, in fact, after a specific item, be sure to check out the in-game store for direct purchases!

Going forward, this cache will periodically be available for a limited time. With Apparel Event Silent Night over, the first Legacy Cache is live now for a limited time, and can be accessed within the Apparel Cache menu.

To celebrate, we are giving everyone who logs in to The Division 2 between January 7th and 14th three Legacy Cache keys! Don't forget you can also gift the Legacy Cache to friends or clan mates who are missing apparel!

Legacy Caches guarantee no duplicates, and its contents can be previewed in-game within the Cache menu.
