I am going to call it now. Hyperscape 2! Another failure from Ubisoft.
This comes the same week that Ubisoft revealed Ghost Recon: Frontline, a live service multiplayer game that appears to be aimed at no one in particular. It’s the third battle royale the company has worked on and the third free-to-play shooter it’s announced this year. Frontline is part of Ubisoft’s pivot to more “high-end” freemium releases. Fans were not impressed.
As it did with The Division: Heartland before it, YouTube viewers downvoted the new Frontline trailer by the thousands. The Ghost Recon subreddit collectively lost its ****.
“It’s incredible to me how tone deaf Ubisoft has become,” wrote one poster. “To be clear: nobody in the community wanted a battle royale.”
Frontline’s announcement comes two years after the disastrous release of Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, a game containing the DNA of every other Ubisoft franchise seemingly designed to appeal to everyone, thus exciting almost no one. Internally, the failure prompted a reevaluation of the creative vision guiding Ubisoft’s disparate assemblage of IP. In early 2020, CEO Yves Guillemot announced new editorial vice presidents to help oversee game development across all of its studios, but we know how that turned out.
