Everything Wrong With Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands
Oh boy, where do we begin with Ubisoft’s 2017 release of Ghost Recon: Wildlands for the Xbox One, PS4, and PC? Following on a series’ hiatus for years, Ubisoft decided to bring back Wildlands with a vengeance. The promotional trailer featuring Papa Roach’s Last Resort set the gaming world afire with much anticipation leading up to the game’s initial release; the idea of traversing a fully realized Bolivia, complete with jungles, swamps, salt flats, mines, cliffs, rolling hillsides, icy mountains, beach resorts, casinos, floating drug labs, and plenty of towns to visits, vehicles to drive, and weapons to customize, seemed like a dream game come true. How could Ubisoft possibly screw up a game with so much potential… right? Well, they did, and they managed to do so in only ways Ubisoft could accomplish.
