14 DAY TRIAL // What better time to announce a new Ghost Recon game than during the franchise’s 20th anniversary? French developer Ubisoft has just revealed a brand-new game grounded in the iconic Ghost Recon universe: Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Frontline.
This is a new free-to-play, massive PvP shooter fully developed by Ubisoft Bucharest, the same team that worked on Ghost Recon Wildlands and Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Frontline will be available on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation4, Google Stadia, Amazon Luna and PC via Ubisoft Connect, with full cross-play available at launch.
A release date hasn’t been revealed yet, but players can register now at ghostreconfrontline.com for a chance to play in early tests and to get the latest news and updates. The first closed test will run from October 14 to October 21, for PC players in Europe only.
Ghost Recon Frontline offers a new and never-before-seen way for players to explore the Ghost Recon universe, with a free-to-play, 100+ players, PvP first-person military experience. Set on the fictional island of Drakemoor, Ghost Recon Frontline features an open world full of diverse landmarks and biomes.
The game promises to offer a large set of tactical support tools that will allow players to choose how they want to tackle each scenario in any of the various game modes. Speaking of which, Expedition will be the game’s flagship mode, a new take on the battle royale genre.
Featuring more than 100 players in teams of three, these squads will have to work together to complete dynamic objectives across the massive open map with no converging circle. Once players are done collecting intel, they will have to head to a drop zone and call for an extraction.
When initiated, all teams will know the position of the extraction and will try to intervene, players will have to play tactically to successfully escape and win the match. Additional modes will also be available at launch.
Three classes of contractors will be available during the first closed test, with more available at launch: Assault Class, Support Class, and Scout Class. More importantly, players will be able to switch between different contractors during matches.
