Ghost Recon Wildlands: Ghost War's Jungle Storm update adds new classes and maps

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands launched as a somewhat uninspired game but subsequent updates have greatly enhanced the experience.

Recently, the game got an expansion called Ghost War. Ghost War is a player vs. player (PvP) mode which features team-based matches. Many gamers thought that the expansion wouldn't be updated with new content but there's a Jungle Storm update coming on December 14, 2017.

Jungle Storm is the second major free update for Ghost War and features a wealth of new content. Here are some of the major changes coming to the mode next week.

  • Two new classes will be available in all PvP modes. These include the Pathfinder — a stealthy Ghost equipped with a deadly crossbow and unmarkable by drones — as well as another new class, which will be revealed upon launch.
  • Ranked play will be added with Jungle Storm which allows players and their squads to strive for the highest ranks.
  • Jungle Storm will also introduce new maps for the Elimination and Uplink modes. The update will also add new weapons and bring gameplay updates.

It's great to see Ubisoft supporting Ghost Recon Wildlands so aggressively even after all these months. This will hopefully keep gamers coming back for more. For those unfamiliar with the title, Ghost Recon Wildlands is the first military shooter in a massive open world that you can play entirely solo or in four-player co-op.

A few years from now, Bolivia has become the largest cocaine producer in the world. The Santa Blanca Cartel have turned the country into a narco state. As a Ghost, you must stop the Cartel by any means necessary.

  • Absolutely brilliant game. In 4K on Xbox One X it looks incredible. Put so many hours into it. Not sure why it’s not got more recognition 
  • It didn't get more recognition because of instant fail stealth missions everywhere.
  • Git gud
  • LOL you failing cos you suck does not make it a bad game Yoshi. You just need to be stealthy, er, cos thats the point. I love taking my time picking off narco punks to get to the objective. 
  • Amazing game.
    Beat long time ago, for me one of the best game of 2017.
    On my x1x looks great
  • Noone plays ghost wars. Always dead as hell when i try and find a match.
  • Which region? I never have a problem finding a game. Takes a few minute at 3am for e.g., but all other time < 1 minute to get into a game.  
  • I have never had any issues finding games, maybe its just the region your trying to join? But i live in South Africa and there is always a game to jump into be it in a squad or on my own. Although with this comment "Noone plays ghost wars" I think your just trying to troll the chat.
  • I love this game, ghost wars is awesome, I just need to get better at it. Definitively getting high replay value from me.
  • As much as I loved the game, it just got so brutally repetitive as far as the single player campaign was concerned.  I really liked the gameplay mechanics, though and will start picking away at it again.  Definitely a brilliant co-op game.
