Ghost Recon may not be the most famous line in the Tom Clancy series, but the franchise has always consistently impressed with its console excursions. Its key element has always been co-operative gameplay, but the franchise's storylines and characters have always been a big draw as well. It may not have as big a star factor as Sam Fisher, but playing with your buddies on Ghost Recon isn't easily matched by the other sagas that inhabit the Tom Clancy universe. As far as military shooters go, it's always aligned itself on the more realistic side of modern warfare. Simply running and gunning won't get you far, and Wildlands definitely doesn't look like it'll be an exception. The surprise announcement and footage shown at Ubisoft's conference easily wowed audiences with its promises of unlimited open world warfare and endless gameplay opportunities, and it's easy to see why. Modern military shooters haven't really strived for innovation for a while now, so it's particularly refreshing to see one go above and beyond to really make this latest experience worthwhile. Future Soldier strayed away from the realistic credentials the series was known for, but it looks as though Wildlands will return to form with this latest outing.
