Ghost Recon: Breakpoint hands-on video — Fighting drones and humans with stealth

Ubisoft gave us plenty of time to check out the Ghosts at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3). I was able to play a lengthy play session of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, the latest installment in the long-running tactical shooter series.

The game has beautiful graphics and precise combat, but it’s a big departure from 2017’s Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands, where players fought in Bolivia. Back then, the task was to destroy a drug cartel on its own turf, region by region, until the whole country was free.
