Press Release
Ubisoft has announced that more than 6.8 million unique players participated across Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands’ Beta phases including the Open Beta that ended February 27, breaking Ubisoft’s record for biggest beta phase in history. More than 2 billion minutes were played and more than 60 percent of players gathered their squad to play the Open Beta in Co-Op, discovering the dangerous beauty of the wildlands ahead of the game’s launch.
The Closed and Open Betas allowed players to ignite their fight against the Santa Blanca cartel by exploring two of the 21 total provinces in the largest action-adventure open world game ever created by Ubisoft. These two provinces offered very different experiences: Itacua is a flourishing and mountainous area as well as the game’s landing province, while Montuyoc, set in the arid and snowy Altiplano, is much more challenging. With each beta, players were able to provide valuable feedback to the development team to help deliver the best experience at launch.
Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands takes place in Bolivia a few years from now, as the country has been turned by the vicious Santa Blanca drug cartel into an in-game narco-state. Players are tasked with eliminating the cartel by any means necessary. The massive and responsive open world encourages a variety of play-styles, allowing players the freedom to choose how they execute any and all missions either in four-player co-op or solo from the beginning to the end.
Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands is now available on current-gen consoles and PC. Check out the launch trailer below!
