'Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint' (ALL) Title Update 3 Lands Next Week, Details - Trailer

by Rainier on Sept. 10, 2020 @ 12:03 p.m. PDT

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint is an entirely new adventure, putting players back in the boots of the Ghosts, an Elite US Special Operations Unit. But this time they are stranded behind enemy lines, facing their toughest enemy to date.

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint is a military shooter set in a diverse and hostile open world entirely playable solo or in up to four-player co-op. Players will discover Auroa, a mysterious island where the most technically advanced facilities meet wild and untamed nature. Home to drone creators, tech giant Skell Technology, Auroa has fallen into the wrong hands and all contact has been lost. 

The Wolves, a lethal ex–US Military unit of former Ghosts gone rogue, have taken over the island. Led by Nomad’s ex-brother-in-arms, Lt. Colonel Cole D. Walker, portrayed by Jon Bernthal, they have reprogrammed Skell’s drones into killing machines and are ready to use them, no matter the casualties. Nomad and the Ghosts are sent in on a recon mission, but their helicopters are shot down. Injured, without support, and hunted down, players will live an intense military experience as they fight to survive, take down the Wolves and regain control of Auroa.

Steep slopes, accumulating injuries, and fatigue are new challenges for players to tackle as they test their survival skills in the varied terrains of Auroa. To overcome adversity, players will enjoy total freedom to accomplish their missions and have plenty of tactical options and tools at their disposal, including a set of new military features. They will be able to carry enemies and teammates’ bodies, blend into their environment with prone camo and set up camp with teammates in the bivouac to manage equipment, change classes, and fine-tune their strategies.

They will also be able to choose among thousands of customization combinations to create their perfect Ghost, and keep their character and progression through the game in both the main campaign and Player-versus-player (PvP), available at launch.


Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint will receive  Title Update 3.0.0 on September 15 on PS4, Xbox One and PC, as well as on Stadia and UPLAY+, the Ubisoft subscription service The update will feature the new adventure: Red Patriot. You will also discover a new class: the Pathfinder, as well as new PVP maps. A live event will also be available later during this new episode.

Title Update 3.0 of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint will include:

  • A new story Adventure: Red Patriot begins when Trey Stone asks Raven’s Rock, a Russian separatist group and their agents, the Bodarks, to plan attacks on US soil. Nomad is assigned a simple mission: take down everyone involved in Stone’s plan and the Bodarks. The Adventure will offer a branching storyline and optional mission objectives for a diversity of approaches. All players will get access to two free missions and can purchase the full adventure afterward, but Year 1 Pass owners can play the adventure’s 10 missions in full. Upon completing missions, players will unlock 26 high-quality rewards.
  • A new class with one-week exclusivity for Year One pass owners starting September 15.
    • Pathfinder class lets player control a rogue Azraёl drone through their special ability, the Armaros Interface. Their special tool, the Uplink Protocol, refills the Pathfinder skill gauge and is only found in well-hidden tactical caches with other high-quality loot. Pathfinders’ passive skills include: Tactical Cache Identification, which allows them to highlight caches; Scout Vision, which allows for white-hot thermal vision; and Wild Metabolism, which allows for ration effects to last longer and to be more powerful.
  • PVP updates, including a new map, three new missions and a Pathfinder class adaptation. The new PvP milestone missions are related to the Pathfinder class and offer two exclusive rewards for completing achievements.

The Title Update 3.0 also adds 65 new items in Maria’s shop including weapons, bundles, vehicles and more.

At the launch of Google Stadia, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint will support the Stream Connect feature, which allows players to display the game of up to three Co-Op teammates on their screen.

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint will include a robust post-launch content support plan, with regular updates after launch. New story arcs, classes and features will be continuously added, and for the first time in a Ghost Recon game, a new type of endgame content: raids.
