While your AI-controlled teammates in Ghost Recon Wildlands were not the brightest sparks, they were handy for filling out your squad if you didn't have co-op pals - so it was weird that the sequel straight cut them. No more. By popular demand, Ubisoft today add AI squadmates to Ghost Recon Breakpoint in a free update. They'll follow your lead, do fancy tricks like execute…
Ghost Recon Breakpoint teams up with Splinter Cell’s Sam Fisher today
Ubisoft's stealth star Sam Fisher has been laying low, with nary a Splinter Cell game since 2013's Blacklist and only a scant few cameo appearances. He's popped back up on the radar again today with a guest spot in Ghost Recon Breakpoint, teaming up with the spec ops squad who specialise in higher bodycounts. He pops up in a new chain of story missions, though…
Ghost Recon Breakpoint is getting a big overhaul, starting with some new game modes
Ghost Recon Breakpoint had a difficult start to life. It was received so awfully by the community that Ubisoft wrote an open letter to address it. Now to try and fix everything, they're overhauling loads of the game's systems.When you load up Breakpoint from March 24th, you'll get the option to choose between three game modes: one to play the it as it originally was,…
Though I played and enjoyed Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands, I avoided Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint like it was Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Racist Uncle At A Party. The build-up to its release did not do a good job of making me want to wander tactically through some forests with a friend, and our review gave me little reason to overrule that. A lot…
Feature: Droning on
As I flew our helicopter towards yet another near-identical slice of Ghost Recon Breakpoint’s drone-infested, “libertarian utopia” turned hellhole, RPS vidbud Matthew pointed out something much more interesting than anything in the game. There was a time, he observed, when Breakpoint’s vast, meticulously-crafted jungles and mountains would have been gob-smacking. We’d have rejoiced in the possibilities offered by a seamless open world, merrily meandering between…

Ghost Recon: Breakpoint made me want to watch Tom Clancy cutscenes
Let me level with you: Ghost Recon: Breakpoint was mostly on my E3 schedule out of obligation. It’s the next big shooty Ubisoft game with all the military folk, sequel to the previous big shooty Ubisoft game with all the military folk. But now we're in the future, and it's got that bloke who plays the Punisher in it. Point being, I wasn't expecting much…

They just keep coming don't they? A lot of games were announced at E3 2019, things that we didn't know about, as well as stuff that's previously announced, or expansions to already released games. Now, to the casual outsider, what we're doing might seem absolutely nuts, but we thought we'd put together an alphabetical list of all the PC games that have been confirmed to…
The promised PvP multiplayer mode for Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands [official site] will arrive in autumn, Ubisoft confirmed today, and be preceded by an open beta test this summer. If rolling around invading a country with the lads isn't enough japery for you, you'll be able to team up to shoot a squad of four rival blokes. With the scale, vehicles, and different playstyles…
Ghost Recon Wildlands post-launch plans include PvP mode and a big dad
While Ubisoft's Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands [official site] might seem sooo serious about its imperialist fantasy, apparently Ubisoft are saving some cracking japes for DLC. A series of missions will have players poke at something called 'The Unidad Conspiracy', which I can only imagine is a supernatural entity composed of hundreds of dads twisted and merged into one flesh. Clad in a vast cardigan,…
You tell me: why am I your outboard memory? Why do you need me, today, to remind you that the four-day open beta test for sandbox stealth-o-shooter Ghost Recon Wildlands [official site] is now live? We told you when it was coming, then we told you it was preloading, and now here I am telling you that it's started. Why? Why is this on me?…
Ghost Recon Wildlands [official site] is a far cry from ye olde Ghost Recon games but... oh no, I'm appalled by having accidentally punned yet pleased by how fitting it is. We only saw a little when Ubisoft announced the open-world shooter at E3 last June, but it reminded us of a po-faced take on Far Cry's outposts or Just Cause. Which sounds like a…
Four-player co-op man-shooting action (stop me if you've heard this one before) is coming from Ubisoft in Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands [official site], a game I called "po-faced Just Cause" in our tree house but Graham more optimistically declared "Co-op Far Cry Outposts: The Game." It's an open-world third-person shooter which'll see US Special Forces roaming around Bolivia to take on a drug cartel.…
