At launch however, Ghost War takes the form of a classic deathmatch, however, more mods will come in the future. While there are also eight maps confirmed for the mode at launch, more will be coming.

Ghost War will be a team-based mode where two groups of players will battle in four vs four combat. Matches will be played on a large-scale open map where players will engage in tactical squad gameplay to takedown the other team.

Each map in the game is unique and comes with its’ own challenges and opportunities. Teams can use the environment to deal damage or create diversions to creep closer to the objective of the mode. However, there will also be environmental events such as storms that can provide cover for teams to move positions by disrupting line of sight.

Ghost War is a highly anticipated new feature to Ghost Recon: Wildlands. Hopefully Ubisoft will be able to deliver a solid mode.
