This time, unsurprising, we&#8217;re seeing another tie in with Rainbow Six Siege, which Wildlands also did previously. <a href=\"https:\/\/ghostgamer.news\/ghost-gamer-history-rainbow-6\/\">The Rainbow Six universe has gone a bit south in my opinion<\/a>, but hey, at least it&#8217;s a new update.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll be able to don PPE (and have it be actually useful) come January 21st. Ubisoft has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ubisoft.com\/en-us\/game\/ghost-recon\/breakpoint\/news-updates\/3MWbDJeqyPd2QGovII1mfG\/tom-clancys-ghost-recon-breakpoint-live-event-3-amber-sky\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">some details about what&#8217;s coming here<\/a>. Ultimately, though, there are 2 big takeaways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One, masks of some sort are going to need to be worn in some (if not all) of the missions tied to this event. How that will work with Breakpoint&#8217;s Ghost Experience settings (which makes clothing purely cosmetic) isn&#8217;t currently known, but hopefully it won&#8217;t require re-enabling the gear score system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we&#8217;re getting a new underbarrel attachment that&#8217;ll be of limited use for my fellow stealth fanatics, but has been requested quite frequently: An underbarrel shotgun. This has been in-game for a bit on NPCs, but PCs could never equip it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll also be gaining access to rewards from previous events through the store, which was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/GhostRecon\/comments\/kx9qfe\/tom_clancys_ghost_recon_breakpoint_live_event_3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">noted in the post on Reddit<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, we&#8217;ll have to wait and see, but given the reference to &#8220;breach and clear&#8221;, I think we can expect stealth to take a back-seat for at least some of the missions here, much like other events that have played out in the past (such as the Splinter Cell missions, which culminated in a ridiculous boss fight, ironically enough).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, if you or your friends haven&#8217;t played Breakpoint yet, this update also coincides with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ubisoft.com\/en-us\/game\/ghost-recon\/breakpoint\/news-updates\/24FvA36Tbsc0i4y2wVYfDl\/tom-clancys-ghost-recon-free-weekend-jan-2125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">free weekend running Jan. 21st through the 25th<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>UPDATE: Looks like we&#8217;ve <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ubisoft.com\/en-us\/game\/ghost-recon\/breakpoint\/news-updates\/38wOYugbTY4EppoALntMy\/tom-clancys-ghost-recon-breakpoint-patch-notes-title-update-310\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">got some additional details<\/a> on what the update includes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First off, we&#8217;re getting some new weapons pulled from the Rainbow Six Siege universe. I&#8217;ve noted what these actually are, as this isn&#8217;t readily in the Ubisoft blog post linked above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>4-AC (Assault Rifle)<\/li><li>Bailiff 410 (Pistol, revolver)<\/li><li>G2 (believed to be the G2 FAMAS Assault Rifle)<\/li><li>K1A (SMG)<\/li><li>L85A2 (Assault Rifle)<\/li><li>M509A1 (Shotgun)<\/li><li>OTS-03 (DMR)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, for stealth &amp; sniper fans, we&#8217;ve got 2 new weapons to play with (SMG for the Panther class given SMGs and pistols can use suppressors without a damage reduction when playing Panther, and the OTS-03 DMR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A number of weapons are also receiving gunsmith updates, too, but one big change is in the bugfixes: Bipods will start boosting range, which means if you&#8217;ve got your range chart already crafted for your favorite rifle, make sure you don&#8217;t have the bipod equipped! This also potentially opens up other optics &amp; rifles for use with the reticle as a BDC (bullet drop compensator), so keep that in mind!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, we have an idea on the missions. Looks like we&#8217;re just getting 9 missions total as part of the event, in 3 types.. Breach, spy, and steal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Breach is much like I noted above; you&#8217;re not going to be doing those stealthily. The spy &amp; steal missions, however, should presumably embrace stealth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After an accidental leak of the teaser video, Ubisoft has officially announced the next event for Ghost Recon Breakpoint, titled &#8220;Amber Sky&#8221;.
