Today, Ubisoft announced the new features for the next update of Ghost Recon Online, as well as a Veteran Rewards program to thank players for their contribution to the game.

Generous Veteran Rewards Program

To show their gratitude towards beta players, the Ghost Recon Online team has announced the start of a generous Veteran Rewards program. Players will be granted up to £25.00 in in-game currency, based on their tenure and experience. This program is accessible to players who join the game before its official launch this spring and the rewards will be automatically credited within two weeks after launch.

Public testing of Tactical Insertions and Smoke Grenades

The team has also been working on two new features: Smoke Grenades and Tactical Insertions, which will respectively allow players to obscure the battlefield and to spawn next to their teammates.

“Tactical Insertion and Smoke Grenades are an important gameplay update that we believe will impact strategic gameplay on the battlefield,” said Simon Davis, Lead Game Designer. “For the first time in the history of our game, we will make the features available first in a public playtest, so that our players can try them out and give their feedback. We want to make sure it is fine tuned for launch.”
