Ghost Recon Frontline will offer a variety of player classes, known as contractors. Frontline is “built on core Ghost Recon values,” developers said, letting players create their own solutions to solve situations. Players will be able to “reshape” the battlefield, calling in vehicles, auto turrets, and dynamic cover - including on-demand sniper towers - via airdrops.

After accomplishing their mission, they’ll fight to survive as they call in an extraction team to escape with said intel.

It’s called Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Frontline, and it goes into testing next week in select territories.
