Following an April Fool’s Day joke that seemed to tease an upcoming Rainbow Six Siege battle royale mode, fans have been wondering whether any other Ubisoft franchises will be getting the battle royale treatment.
One player hit up the official Ghost Recon Wildlands Twitter account, suggesting that a 100-player mode would be great, as it could make great use of the “beautiful map of Bolivia.” Ubisoft responded, saying that they “understand the allure of the Battle Royale game mode” and acknowledged that “it may seem like a natural direction for Ghost War.” Unfortunately, “it would involve changes in the game structure and technical challenges that are simply impossible to undertake right now.”
We understand the allure of the Battle Royale game mode and while it may seem like a natural direction for Ghost War. However, it would involve changes in the game structure and technical challenges that are simply impossible to undertake right now.

That means we won’t be seeing a Ghost Recon Wildlands battle royale mode in the near future. However, with another year of content having been confirmed, it’s perhaps possible that a battle royale-esque mode will be added further down the line.
In other Ghost Recon Wildlands news, new Year 2 content details have been revealed, and the game’s anniversary was celebrated with free in-game items and a video.
