, French publisher Ubisoft has unveiled its next big project: Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, which will be the successor to . This is a third-person military shooter set in a mysterious and dangerous open world in the Auroa archipelago. You can fight in it both alone and in the cooperative game mode for four people. According to the cinematic trailer, the main character's enemy this time around will be other Ghosts, so it won't be easy.
The main character was sent to the Auroa archipelago with the usual reconnaissance mission, but his helicopter was shot down on approach. It turns out that the island is in the hands of enemies. The former colleague, Colonel Cole D. Walker, commander of the Wolves detachment, consisting of US special forces, runs everything here. These fighters have gone through the same training and know everything the protagonist knows. In addition, they have at their disposal the most advanced combat drones in the world.
Our hero is wounded and unable to call for help. Survival depends on whether he can conquer Auroa, find allies and find out why former comrades became traitors, what happened to Jace Skell? The archipelago is located in the South Pacific Ocean - it is a vast region with a variety of natural areas, from rocky fjords and snowy peaks to bottomless swamps and lava lakes.
The game provides a system of wounds that will slow down the character and reduce effectiveness in battle - it will take time and resources to get back in shape. The complex landscape of the environment will complicate the task, you will have to monitor the character's endurance: on steep slopes, you can slip and fall down, water will slow you down, and snow will fall under your feet. For recreation, you can set up a detachment camp, and in it you can select equipment, classes and weapons, or develop a strategy. Allies do not have to be healed under fire - they can be picked up on the shoulder and taken to a safe place.
Complete freedom of choice of tactics is promised: you can focus on stealth, action or destruction, use an extensive arsenal of tools and tricks. Also, the developers have created an innovative system when the hero chooses the optimal pose for the shelter used, after which access to combat tactics such as aimed shooting from behind a corner is opened. Ubisoft promises that AI opponents will have advanced AI that will communicate with each other while hunting down the player, and a variety of behaviors will ensure that each combat encounter will be unique.
In addition to the story campaign, there will be an opportunity to explore the open world in secondary missions and events. There are also competitive modes with the participation of other players and squads. In Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, you can completely customize the Ghost for yourself, changing both appearance and skills. In addition, there will be thousands of combinations of equipment and upgradeable weapons, and a new class system will allow you to specialize in stealth, ranged or assault combat. Such a unique character will be available in both single player, co-op and online modes (with a single reward system).
