That's just how it is! Epic for launcher, Ubisoft for game. You get used to it.

The Division 2 installs twice with Epic because it requires both the Epic Games Launcher and Ubisoft Connect to run. It's just a quirk of how the game integrates with different services!

Technical reason behind it: Epic Games handles the storefront, but Ubisoft's the one that actually runs the game's updates and DRM. So, double the fun!

You get a double installation because Epic Games handles the purchase and initial download, while Ubisoft Connect manages the actual game files and updates. Annoying but true!

First-hand experience here: I went through the same thing. It鈥檚 not a bug, it鈥檚 just the way the game integrates with both platforms.
