The game was part of a larger push toward free-to-play games at Ubisoft, which included F2P spinoffs in the Tom Clancyverse, The Division Heartland and Tom Clancy’s XDefiant. Ghost Recon Frontline was being developed for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X, and streaming platforms Amazon Luna and Google Stadia. Backlash to the game’s reveal and premise was swift and intense, and Ubisoft postponed on a planned technical test for Frontline just one week after the game was announced. The mechanics here are quite different to the typical games in the genre. This isn’t Warzone or Apex Legends, however. Whether you’re eager for more battle royale or not, Ubisoft’s latest shooter drops the Ghost Recon franchise into the fray. The developer said at the time that Frontline was being “built on core Ghost Recon values,” but response from Ghost Recon fans was widely negative.
