Ubisoft has confirmed that they are developing a new Ghost Recon title called Ghost Recon Online. Unlike the anticipated Ghost Recon: Future Soldier which is a standard retail game, Ghost Recon Online will be a free-to-play PC title.

Ghost Recon Online takes the best attributes of the Ghost Recon game franchise and brings them online, making the experience of being a Ghost accessible to millions of new players and fans, said Hugues Ricour, senior producer at Ubisoft. This game was designed from the start to be a free-to-play experience. Our development teams are dedicated to making Ghost Recon Online a truly unique, top-quality online title.

The online market is an exciting new frontier for video games and for gamers, said Yves Guillemot, chief executive officer at Ubisoft. With Ghost Recon Online, and other major upcoming projects, Ubisoft is creating online experiences that allow our fans to stay connected to their favorite brands and to continually receive new content and gameplay. This direct link with our fans will allow us to create new and ever better experiences for them.
