Earlier this evening Ubisoft surprised us all by announcing another Ghost Recon game coming from its Paris studio. Personally, I’d have take a new Splinter Cell – but whatever.
Very few details were given on the new third-person shooter, but thankfully Ubisoft’s chief sat down and spoke to Geoff Keighley about the game and in the process he revealed some new details.
The teaser trailer showed that there would be a multiplayer mode, but didn’t really allude to any single-player content. For those who enjoy their single-player campaigns – fear not, it has one. According to Ubisoft, Ghost Recon: Wildlands will feature a single-player campaign that can be played with friend in multiplayer – a bit like Far Cry 4, isn’t it?
Most Ghost Recon games tend to take place a little ahead of our own time but with Wildlands we’ll be fighting very much in the present instead of the future. It’s an odd move as it means it’s nota full-on sequel to Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. Bit of a shame really as Future Solider was actually pretty good and the characters were likeable enough, but it really felt like we needed a bit more to really appreciate their traits, something that could have been done with a sequel. That’s not to say we won’t see a follow-up in the future, but for now we’ll have to make do with the open-world offering that’s most certainly not coming this year, as stated by the Ubi-Boss.
