Ghost Experience for Ghost Recon Breakpoint aims to solve the games issues

Ubisoft has shared the release date for the biggest update yet for Ghost Recon Breakpoint. With the Ghost Experience, the developer is promising to iron some of the biggest grievances gamers originally had with the lackluster open-world shooter. Watch the new trailer to see more the exciting changes that are coming with the update later this month, on March 24th.

When Ghost Recon Breakpoint launched last summer, it was immediately slammed down by both critics and gamers alike. The highly-anticipated sequel to 2017’s hit Wildlands not only failed to replicate the awesome open-world co-op experience, but it also introduced a bunch of new issues. Chief among these were pay-to-win systems – which were previously removed already -, an overbearing focus on leveling and general bug problems.

The launch of Breakpoint was so catastrophic that it even lead to Ubisoft delay all their future games and radically change the company strategy in terms of game development in general. That’s massive. But leave it to the talented folks at Ubisoft to learn from their mistakes. They have proven it with the insane turnaround of Rainbow Six Siege after all, that they do listen to fan feedback.

That’s where the Ghost Experience comes in. As part of the most drastic update to Breakpoint to date, it will offer players the option to choose between the Regular and Immersive Experience. Later radically alters the original game balance and progression. For those who want to adapt the experience to their liking, a breadth of parameters will let them customize the game to an unprecedented amount. Here’s a rundown of what Ghost Recon Breakpoint players will be able to customize:

  • No Gear Level: Customize and keep the same weapon throughout your whole adventure. Quality tiers and item levels are disabled.
  • Realistic Looting: Loot your enemies’ weapon category and switch them realistically. Gear is found from missions, rewards, and crates.
  • Primary Weapon Quantity: Choose to carry 1 or 2 primary weapons. This was pre-released with TU 1.1.0, but will be fully realized with the Ghost Experience.
  • Ammo Loss on Reload: Remaining ammunition is lost when you change magazines.
  • Stamina Level: Adjust how much stamina you consume.
  • Bandage Quantity: Limit the number of bandages your Ghost can carry.
  • Risk of Injury: Choose the frequency of the injured status when wounded by enemy bullets.
  • Health Regen: Choose to limit, remove or increase your health regeneration.
  • New HUD Settings: Fine-tune your preferred HUD with new settings:
    • Mini-Map Minimal: Smaller map with less information on it.
    • Loot Notification Minimal: Smaller loot notification.
    • 3D Loot Minimal: Smaller 3D loot drop.
  • Private Mode: Encounter only story characters and your direct co-op teammates in Erewhon.
  • Access to Maria’s Shop: Keep access to Maria’s Shop in bivouacs or limit it to Erewhon only.
