More details have leaked out about the new installment in the tactical shooter franchise.
Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is the latest addition to the franchise. It was developed by Ubisoft’s Paris studio and released in 2019. It focused on online gameplay with its live service model, and it was on this game that the Yves Guillemot-led publisher tested the NFTs, as they were also released in December 2021. The NFTs were such a success that they earned around $400. By April 2022, Ubisoft had stopped supporting the live service.
But now Insider Gaming has revealed more about the next part of the franchise. It is codenamed Project Over and could be released in 2025 or 2026. One of the biggest changes will be that it will have a first-person view. The last time we saw a Ghost Recon FPS was in 2007 (Advanced Warfighter 2). 2019’s Breakpoint and the 2017 Wildlands that preceded it also had optional FPP views, but the new installment is rumored to add everything FPS gameplay has to offer.
The new Ghost Recon would be similar in gameplay and atmosphere to the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare games. The graphical style is similar to Void Interactive’s Ready or Not. Project Over takes place during a fictional war (the Naimian War) and features divisive missions. For example, a squad is about to shoot a man carrying a baby because they think the baby is a bomb. This mission is very similar to the 2019 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Clean House mission: there, we had to raid a house and discover a mother and her baby. If we killed the mother, the soldiers would question our decision, and whoever used violence against the baby would immediately get a game-over on a darkened screen with the caption “Children are non-combatants”.
All of this is not official yet, but if we’re at least a year away from the new Ghost Recon installment, it’s coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox series, PC, and possibly Amazon Luna…
