‘Ghost Recon Wildlands’ to get two major expansions, free player-vs.-player update

Add as a preferred source on Google

Ubisoft has been on a tear with its promotion of Buy Now . From a live-action prequel movie featuring rapper T.I to the soon-to-be-released documentary exploring the South American drug trade, it appears Ubisoft has high hopes that players will be enthralled by its upcoming third-person tactical shooter. If the open-beta, which boasted a Ubisoft record 6.8 million users, is any indication, Wildlands has gamers intrigued.

Just ahead of the game’s March 7 launch, Ubisoft has now announced post-launch content plans on the game’s official website. Wildlands users can look forward to both paid and free content in the months following launch. The post-content trailer can be viewed above.

First, the paid plans. Like many games, Wildlands has a season pass containing two major expansions: “Narco Road” and “Fallen Ghosts.” In Narco Road, players will go undercover with three groups of smugglers and partake in more than a dozen “eccentric” high-octane missions. The end goal is to gain the trust of each gang’s leader and take them out. In Fallen Ghosts, your chopper is shot down, forcing you to find your way to safety while a brigade of ruthless mercenaries hunts you and your team down.

The expansions can be purchased separately, but season pass holders get access a week early. The season pass also includes two additional missions — the Unidad Conspiracy and the Peruvian Connection (also available as a pre-order bonus) — additional weapons and vehicles, and permanent experience bonuses.

A price for the pass wasn’t available as of publication, but we do know that the $100 Gold Edition comes bundled with the season pass.

As for free content, much like Ubisoft’s most recent game, Buy Now , Wildlands will be broken up into month-and-a-half seasons with specific themes. The first “Season of Challenges” begins shortly after launch. Rewards will be given to you and your squad for completing objectives.

A few months down the line, Wildlands will also receive a free update that adds adversarial mode. This player-versus-player mode pits squads of four against one another.

Ghost Recon Wildlands comes to Buy Now , Buy Now , and Buy Now March 7. Ghost Recon HQ, the game’s companion app, is available on iOS and Android now.

Anyone who bought Samsung's pricey Odyssey series of ultra-wide monitors just found another reason to fill up every inch of it. Samsung has become the official TV, monitor, soundbar, and Wi-Fi speaker partner for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, with Activision and Samsung integrating HDR10+ Gaming into the upcoming shooter.

This isn't just a simple partnership that brings some cool stickers or logos either; Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 will officially launch with support for a 32:9 aspect ratio. It gives Odyssey G9 owners a considerably wider view of the battlefield.

MelGeek MADE68 Ultra V2 Review: Great for gaming, even better than I expected for typing
Rapid Trigger is great, but the switches and acoustics are what won me over.

I have spent years using mechanical keyboards, and Hall Effect switches never really tempted me away from them. I understood the gaming appeal. Adjustable actuation and Rapid Trigger can make a meaningful difference in competitive games, but I also spend hours every day writing. Typing experience matters just as much to me.

The $219 MelGeek MADE68 Ultra V2 has made that distinction considerably harder to maintain.
