Ghost Recon: Future Soldier release date

By Fred Dutton Published 3 October, 2011

Ubisoft plots March retail assault.

Tactical shooter Ghost Recon: Future Soldier in the US on 6th March, publisher Ubisoft has announced via Joystiq.

That should give the development team plenty of time to make any tweaks following the title's planned January open beta.

For more on the first home console Ghost Recon outing since 2007's Advanced Warfighter 2, give Eurogamer's Future Soldier preview a once over.

    Played really well at the Expo, multiplayer at least was as good as ever.

    Can't wait!

    Well, given that it needs to go gold in mid-February it doesn't give them much time really. In fact a more cynical person might suggest that it's really just a demo with the word "beta" tagged on to give it some kind of frisson of excitement.

    And on March 1st they'll arbitrarily delay the PC version by a month.

    They need to improve weapon accuracy, the spray n pray approach is disappointing, otherwise its pretty good. Looking forward to the test.

    Still can't help but start singing the Future Sailor song from The Mighty Boosh whenever I see this title!

    Actually, I'd completely forgotten this game was even coming out. I hope they don't stray too far away from the Ghost Recons of old; they were far more fun than all this Modern Warfare nonsense.

    Hey ubi how about HD remixes of Ghost Reacon and Island Thunder for XBL and PSN?
    Easily the best online games last gen!

    Thoroughly enjoyed GR games. Had some of the best visuals when they came out. I was blown away by the first one on the 360 - just looked stunning and was a real challenge in patience and planning on the hardest difficulty. Gameplay was great. Loved intensity of the online multiplayer - especially the co-op missions. Anyone else get the achievement for 1 hour holding off wave after wave. That didn't make me too popular with the mrs, helping all my mates get that achievement.

    If they can stick to the old formula and not jump on the COD bandwagon then I might be into this. But I really don't want weird guns that bend round corners and sh!t like that. I want the more clinical, tactical, gameplay of the original xbox ones.

    I used to love taking a team and coordinating breaches perfectly. Or sticking a sniper somewhere who would provide cover on the more open maps. How much did it suck when one of your guys who had been souped up died cos of a stupid mistake. I actually had invested so much time and effort in getting them experience there was an emotional impact in losing one. Anyone else have a penchant for the female sniper?
