Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier will equip players with the world's hottest future combat systems, inspired by existing prototypes, and unleash them on the battlefield of tomorrow.

As a member of the elite Ghost Recon, you are among the few who possess the power, the adaptability, and the cognitive fortitude of the future soldier. Specialized in every area of combat, equipped for survival, and trained in absolute discretion, you are entrusted with the missions no other soldier can handle. Armed to the teeth with an arsenal of real-world high-tech weaponry only in prototype today, you are an F-16 on legs, trained to lock on to your objective even in the world's most complex, high-risk warzones.

In the multiplayer beta, will run from April 19th until May 2nd, up to twelve simultaneous players will have the opportunity to choose from three classes (Rifleman, Engineer and Scout) and experience the intense adversarial online action in two different modes:

• Conflict

  • Game session: 1 round of 15 minutes
