Every AAA offering that Ubisoft pushes out needs to be top-notch for the studio to get back on its feet. Therefore, every title currently in development by the company is under intense scrutiny from the fans and the shareholders, and the new Ghost Recon title is no different.
Now, a credible industry insider teases that the unannounced Ghost Recon title, codenamed Project Ovr, is aiming to launch sometime in Fall 2026. It is set to enter the internal alpha testing phase in the fall of this year, which is expected to last about 12 months.
Why it matters: A lot of expectations are riding on Ubisoft’s new Ghost Recon project, given the studio’s fumble with the last game.
Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson says the new Ghost Recon game entering alpha later this year was confirmed by Ubisoft as part of internal announcements after the last major delays. The leak suggests that it could launch as early as Fall 2026, if there are no setbacks.
Ubisoft is reportedly not planning to announce it for the next 12 months. Instead, it wants to reveal the project with a bang by returning next year with a massive Ubisoft Forward event.
The leaked gameplay also reportedly suggests that Ubisoft has taken a more grounded approach with the Ghost Recon game. It is more of a mil-sim like the Modern Warfare series or the tactical shooter, Ready or Not.
Ubisoft is currently expected to launch the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake and a director’s cut of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora in the next 12 months. The studio is also working on a highly teased Assassin’s Creed 4 remake and the Splinter Cell remake.
