Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon (also known as simply Ghost Recon) is a video game in the tactical shooter genre, inspired by the work of Tom Clancy. It was published by Ubi Soft Entertainment and developed by Red Storm Entertainment, a Ubisoft subsidiary, in 2001. Unlike most games with the Tom Clancy trademark, Ghost Recon is not based off one of his books.
The game has three expansion packs: Ghost Recon: Desert Siege, available only for the PC; Ghost Recon: Island Thunder, available for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation 2 under the title of Jungle Storm; and finally, Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm, available only for PlayStation 2. Jungle Storm combines Island Thunder with a whole new campaign. There are also many modifications available for the PC releases.
The latest patch for Ghost Recon is in version 1.4 and was released August 23, 2002.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 2 was announced in a Ubisoft press release dated April 8, 2004 (see release). The sequel to the popular title is said to have an updated graphics engine and enhanced game play. The setting is East Asia. An exact release date is unknown, but the press release alludes to a Holiday season release. It will be available for both PC and console.
