Ubisoft has announced that it’s bringing active development of new content for Ghost Recon Breakpoint to an end.
The company revealed the news to fans in a statement on the official Ghost Recon Twitter account. It opened by thanking fans for their love and support of the game since its launch in October of 2019. “During the past 2 years, we released more than 11 Updates and supported several unique initiatives. From the Ghost Experience, the return of AI teammates, Special Operations with Sam Fisher; working with R6 operators in Operation Amber Sky, and lastly our ‘Plant A Tree project’ we have been hard at work to add extra content for Ghost Recon Breakpoint.”
“We will continue to maintain our servers for both Ghost Recon Wildlands and Ghost Recon Breakpoint and we truly hope you will continue to enjoy the game and have fun playing in solo or co-op with your friends. From the entire Ghost Recon team, we want to thank you again for your continued support and love you have for the franchise”.
The news comes just months following the launch of the controversial Ubisoft Quartz project that added NFTs into the game. Players were able to buy specific cosmetic items that would be marked with a unique serial number. Theoretically, players could then trade these out of the game for real world money. However, the scheme was met with heavy criticism which included the limited scope of these items outside of the game. It’s certainly unlikely this move will change that view any time soon.
We gave Ghost Recon Breakpoint a score of 7 in our original review, which you can read here. The future of the Ghost Recon series currently looks hazy, although its characters will appear in upcoming free-to-play shooter XDefiant.
