Ubisoft Massive has released the patch notes for the Incursions Update coming next week to The Division.

We’ve slapped the entire thing below for you, and you can get a look at a teaser video for the Assignments included in the update above.

As previously reported, players will be able to make use of Level 31 and 32 Blueprints and Division Tech requirements have been removed from some level 31 High-End Blueprints.

Also coming with Update 1.1 is the ability for players to report cheaters. A three day suspension will be handed out to those which Ubisoft Massive has determined as a true report, with a second chance offered once the suspension is lifted. If the player is foound to have cheated again, they will be permanently banned.
