Ghost Recon Future Soldier Delayed, Multiplayer Beta Announced

Ubisoft has delayed the release of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier to May, 2012. The game will ship on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on May 22 in North America and on May 24 in Europe. Ubisoft said a PC version will ship at "a later date."

A multiplayer beta will be available in April for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

“Ubisoft prides itself on creating some of the most compelling and innovative experiences in digital entertainment,” said Adrian Lacey, IP development director at Ubisoft Studios France. “Today we are feature complete in our multi-player, single-player and four-player co-op campaign modes. We have made the decision to move the date in order to ensure that all these ingredients are pushed to the highest level and provide a truly unique shooter experience.

"The Ghost Recon franchise is known for setting the standard of high definition gaming and we believe the extra couple of months will allow us to reach that goal. We would like to thank all Ghost Recon fans for their patience and look forward to unveiling some exciting new elements in the coming weeks.”

  • The delay sucks but at least we get a beta.
  • I hope this game turns out well.

  • It sucks having to wait, but it beats playing a glitch-filled mess. I'm lookin' at you, Skyrim.
  • Ok, how many times they're going to delay it? I'm really looking forward to this game,but I forget about it because of the lack of news. The only thing that reminds me about the game is delay. I hope the devs use the time they have to polish it.

  • "The extra couple months..." you've delayed this game like 30 times already. This is getting to be ridiculous.This game was supposed to be out in 2010.
  • aaaaaarrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggg man this blows, but on a positive note this gives me alot more time to pour into Mass Effect 3 which released a week later until this delay. here is to hoping this game will smack all other games in the mouth when it does.

  • I know people hate delays, but it is better to have the game delayed than to have a broken game.
  • Never played a Ghost Recon game before, but im willing to give the beta a go.
  • *** delays, just hope its awesome. Can't wait for this and Rainbow!

  • the world "truly unique shooter experience" don't really ever mean anything anymore. If you like to shoot at stuff then cool but the fps genre is essentially the same regardless of what the target is beit aliens, necromorphs, Russians, or whomever. I'd personally LOVE a "truly unique shooting experience" but do I think Ubisoft will give me that with this game? NO, but I'll still play the hell out of it because I like the genre regardless. Let's just stop with the sugar coating. Less talky talky and more making the game look and feel smoother!
  • ahahahahaha

  • This game has been delayed so many times, I keep forgetting about it. Maybe, when it finally releases it will all be worth it in the end.

    *crosses fingers*
  • It has been delayed 4 times this is getting kind of annoying.
  • Dam.n it Ubisoft!

    Though I suppose it's for the best, wasn't it supposed to release in March? Yeah, still have too many games to play by then.

    But with every delay I can't help but think that it's not because they want to polish it up some more, but there's something inherently flawed or broken they are trying to do some damage-control on. Maybe I'm paranoid.

  • This is probably a good thing. Excited for this game

  • Again? Come on.

  • How many times can this game be delayed? By the time it comes out, their going to have to call it Past Soldier.......*hangs head in shame* :P
  • I still laugh at all of the people who bought Splinter Cell based on getting to play the Beta for this.  You could tell with the lame live action trailer, that Ubisoft had no idea what they were doing pushing the series that far into the future.  And now the future will become modern day if they keep pushing it out.

  • A Beta is always good, but I'm not sure I follow when he says that Ghost Recon is known for "setting the standard of high definition gaming." PR at its finest.

  • Delay, delay, delay that is all hear about this game.
