We’ll update the post if we hear anything official from Ubisoft, so sit tight.
Update: Ubisoft has finally acknowledged the outages! Here’s the announcement via the Ubisoft forums:
Hello everyone. We’re aware of an issue currently affecting connectivity and are working towards resolving this. We apologize for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience. Please be sure to check this thread for future updates. Thanks.
We’ll be updating this article as more news develops.
Here are the reports from the community:
A Ghost Recon subreddit mod has acknowledged the connectivity issues with a PSA (Public Service Announcement):
The ever-reliable Downdetector has also seen a massive spike in outage reports just now, too:
Unfortunately, the official Ghost Recon Twitter account and the official Ubisoft Support account have not acknowledged the server outages so far. And given Ubisoft has dropped support for the game (official announcement just last month), we’re expecting R6 Siege to be fixed first before Ghost Recon Breakpoint and Wildlands (if we’re being honest).
If you can connect somehow, leave a comment below and let us know which platform you’re on, and where you’re located (and which Ghost Recon game as well), just so other Ghost Recon players are aware of the situation.

Approx 8pm Ghost Recon Wildlands, using disk, “unknown error. Took too long to start”. Tried 3 or 4 times, same error message. Then tried to play centerpede which I had downloaded years ago, same error message
