Wait, Ubisoft is still supporting Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, over two years since its release? Apparently so! Next week, on the 2nd November, the game's getting a huge update that adds an entirely new mode of play. Story-wise, it all takes place after the main plot, as the Ghosts are called back to the now liberated island of Auroa in order to keep the peace. In this new single-player or co-op Conquest mode, which is accessed separately from the core game, the map is split up into different territories, and it's your job to disrupt enemy activity before offing the big baddies.
It all sounds very Ubisoft, but if you're already a fan of Breakpoint, then this should provide a dynamic new way to play the game. What's more, this update raises the level cap from 30 to 99 (quite the jump), and you'll be able to unlock optical camo for use in both Conquest mode and the main campaign.
We may not be the biggest fans of Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, but it's hard to fault Ubisoft's approach when it comes to supporting its games. Will you be diving back into Breakpoint for this update? Scout ahead in the comments section below.

Can I just get a better Ghost Recon game? I really want Future Soldier 2. Not this open world borefest.
From what I watched of the video it sounds like Wildlands what with the lieutenants, territories etc
I platted Wildlands. Loved it for what it was.
Waited on Breakpoint until after the first major update that allowed you to turn off the gear score stuff and customize your play and... it bored me to tears. It was just sooo janky and annoying. Drones flying all over, disrupting my play. Ugh.
They should be proud of the support, but also... when is it officially too little, too late? I mean, this just looks like Division 2's endgame when all is said and done.
@Lightning_FF13 ...seriously? NOTHING beats that
@KingPev you like how his farts smell? Sick..
@Integrity ....🤢🤢🤢 now I can't unsee that image ha ha
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, actually this is the first time I’ve said it, but still, no one works harder to give fans what they want than the Breakpoint Team. The Wildlands fan service, new level cap, new modes, free costumes for famous GR characters, granular customization, this all looks awesome. I will definitely be jumping back in. You had me at No Battle Royal Mode…
@MFTWrecks the option to toggle off drones was added months ago Nomad (only missions that technically involved drones are still switched on, all other drones, can be switched off)
@frankmcma Hello Games works harder
Please just do Wildlands 2.
@Integrity I have to agree
You know I loved playing GR Wildlands MP. I dropped a crazy amount of hours into that game. Loved the slow pace and tactical teamwork in MP. But like most after playing the Breakpoint beta I didn't give the game a 2nd chance. It just wasn't GR in anything but name and it's so sad how this franchise has fallen. Maybe it's worth picking up now after the update in the bargain bin. I herd they added AI teammates for the campaign and took away the stupid gear score. Is the game in a better state of play now guys?
Huh. That level cap increase is surprisingly high. What gives?
@frankmcma Seriously? I didn’t know you could turn the drones off. I really hated those things.
@Sheppard Many did not like them so they added World Modifiers: https://youtu.be/epqQYjBvf3k
@OMG_Waffles yes there are AI teammates now and they’re pretty cool: https://youtu.be/2qIzQKe5bk0
Gear score can be easily switched off now. There is so much granular customization in the game it’s kinda crazy. The game had a rough launch and the devs spent a year fixing, adding and adjusting features. I never understood the hate for the game but I know many were like “it’s no Wildlands”, I finished the campaign and had fun. Oh they also added 60fps on PS5 a few months back.
@frankmcma
Man thanks for the update Frank. This sounds like a huge improvement! I think I'll pick it up next time it's on sale. Plus you got to love them PS5 60 fps patches!
@OMG_Waffles I feel like it's always on sale every other week for like $20 lol
@frankmcma Forgive me for not staying completely on top of every update for a dead game.
I may replay this now it's 60fps. The game is a lot better with the gear score crap disabled and with ai squadmates.
