We all love a good old post-launch roadmap for the next big Game as a Service, don't we? Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is next to detail what you can look forward to doing on the island of Auroa past what the base game has to offer, and it's quite a hefty list. It looks set to continue the huge amount of support given to Ghost Recon: Wildlands, which kept that game in the picture for much longer than anticipated.
Comprised of three main episodes, the slate of content coming in the game's first year of service kicks off as soon as it launches next month on 4th October. The first episode, Operation Greenstone, adds a further five hours worth of story content, a raid named Project Titan, and a special event based on the Terminator. Sprinkled throughout these major content drops will be new faction missions, updates to PvP, and a new class.
Episode 1 concludes in January 2020, at which point Episode 2, Deep State takes over, before Episode 3 sees us through until September 2020. Each wave of content brings with it new missions, raids or raid updates, classes, and special events.
Don't forget that, unlike other Ubisoft titles such as The Division 2, this post-launch content is not free to all players. You will require the Year 1 Pass to access these new activities, although roughly an hour of each episode will be made available for all players to sample.

Has the beta already started? I already registered for it.
@WanderingBullet tomorrow I think. I could be drastically wrong though.
Still on the fence about the game. The best aspect imo with wildlands was the a.i. when I couldn't find people to play with, they were great. I thunk that's gone now, so now I'm not sure. I got the beta, maybe that will sell it to me.
@WanderingBullet the Beta is starting tomorrow Sept 5th (not sure what time sorry). If you already have the old technical test version of Breakpoint on your PS4 it should have updated to Beta. I joined Uplay+ yesterday which unfortunately at the moment is only being offered on PC, the subscription includes Ghost Recon BreakPoint so it will be interesting if the additional content is included in this. I only joined Uplay+ on PC yesterday as I hope early adoptions help towards making the subscription successful and then it will be more likely to be offered as a service on PS4/PS5 eventually
@cutmastavictory from what I gather so far is that you don't have the AI in BreakPoint but you have 3 drones instead so it'll be interesting to see how this plays out in the Beta.
Nice now i can start the first one and buy the new one complete with a massive discount. 👌😆
@chris730920 @Cutmastavictory Thanks. I found the beta client in the PS Store just now but it says that I need to pre-order the game.
@WanderingBullet pre order really? I don't have it pre ordered, but I was selected to participate. Maybe that's why.
@chris730920 that does sound interesting. Excited to try this beta and see how that works.
I thought this does have ai squad members? I liked the drone in Wildlands but having 3 instead of squad buddies sounds a bit naff.
Ah well, I'll see what the craic is tomorrow.
I'll try the beta as I was in the technical test, but I don't like where this entry seems to be heading.
I enjoyed Wildlands solo and in co-op, but I never touched the PvP crap they tacked on later. They've introduced elements from The Division which I didn't like in that game (didn't bother with Division 2) and don't want in GR, and the talk of a "Year 1 Pass" makes it clear they're dragging this series down the GaaS route as well, with multiple 'year' passes.
I've enjoyed GR games for a while, but I think I'm going to find it difficult to get on board with all this nonsense, unless there's something truly spectacular about the game.
always online and a live service games stuffed with season passes/dlc and mtx, where you depend on other people to get the best out of the game, no thanks, i have to draw the line somewhere.
@Cutmastavictory Yeah or maybe because the preload time hasn't started in my region, yet. I'll try again later today.
