Ghost Recon: Wildlands launched earlier this year, and whatever your thoughts on the base game, there is little denying just how popular it is, or how incredibly well Ubisoft has continued to support it since it came out. That support will continue in the near future, as Ubisoft released a roadmap for their planned support for ‘Ghost Wars’, the PvP mode that they recently added to the title. You can see that roadmap above.
But there’s more- there’s also a brand new patch for the game that is now out, and it is actually really substantial, bringing with it a lot of improvements and fixes for Ghost Wars, as well as a lot of platform specific fixes. You can check out the full patch notes for this newest update for yourself below.
Ghost Recon Wildlands launched earlier this year, and while response from critics was decidedly muted, audiences loved it, and it remains one of the highest selling games of the year. It is available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
