A leaked casting call displayed details about a new Ubisoft project named ‘Project GONE’. These details hint at a tactical military game with a storyline around the complexities of war. Moreover, the leak adds to the ongoing theories about theTom Clancyshooter franchise, particularlyGhost Recon, which some fans feel has strayed from its tactical roots.
With theTom Clancyshooter franchise facing criticism after the disappointingGhost Recon Breakpoint, some fans wonder ifProject GONEcould be the series’ saving grace.
Is Project GONE The Next Ubisoft’s Ghost Recon Game?
The leaked casting call fromUbisoftdives greatly into characters that will be a part of the upcoming tactical military game.
The squad will apparently consist of several characters, including Raphael, a veteran soldier in his mid-30s to late 40s, joined by Ringo, an Indonesian-American or Asian-American, a haunted soldier with a mysterious past, and Spengler, aged 30-40, a Japanese-American or South American, a forensic specialist.

Then Uhura, aged 30-40, is an American-North African or Middle-Eastern sniper in the team, followed by Ahn, who is somewhere between mid-20s to mid-30s and is of Thai origin. Her role is not of military importance but more on the social side, as she is a part of a multinational NGO and an advocate for those in need. The leak suggests the character is fluent in Thai.
Another important character is Kya-Win, a male Thai or Thai American in the 40s or 50s, a former head of the National Secret Police turned rogue operator.
The leak sent fans into a frenzy, as theories about this being a newGhost Reconor a tacticalRainbow Sixgame are overflowing on social media.
Fan Theories Are Wild
The company is known for making great games but they also had many misses. For that, the fans are right to be concerned about the future of the popular tactical shooter franchise.
The New Ghost Recon May Be Closer to Activision Blizzard’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Franchise than Ubisoft’s Wildlands or Breakpoint, and That’s a Great Thing
However, with the new leak, possibilities are endless, whether it is a newRainbow Sixgame, a new IP, or a return to the roots.Nevertheless, one theory that holds water is that the leaked project could be the next installment inTom Clancy’s Ghost Reconseries.
However, some fans are cautious as thestudio has become known for canceling numerous projects and games, and fans are more interested inDivision 3,Splinter Cell, and other games from the publisher.
I couldn’t care less. I only say that because people want a good Division 3, Splinter Cell, and/or Ghost Recon yet we can’t get that. They have all these projects they cancel. So why care? Gaming kind of sucks lately.
Another fan shared his doubts about the success of the game, considering past monetization practices by the popular studio.
So it will be a live service, cost 120$ to get the one mission locked behind this “Insert fancy name” edition. Will have ways to fast track your grind for experience…
Despite fans’ concerns, the leaked information points directly at theGhost Reconseries resurgence. The leaked character details match the hallmarks of past titles in the series and when you add tactics to it, that is an undisputed return to form.
Breakpointcontinued the open-world approach seen for the first time inWildlandsand players weren’t very thrilled. The leak revealed characters, setting, and premise, which all suggest a huge chance for the new tactical game to be a massive win for the franchise as it returns to its classic tactical shooter roots.
