Free Mission: Silent Spade



Join familiar faces in the Wildlands for a mission that raises the stakes higher than ever before. Scott Mitchell needs Nomad and his team to help rookie John Kozak, the youngest Ghost ever, investigate a mysterious plot that links the Santa Blanca cartel to a nuclear threat.

Upon completing this mission, you will have access to a prototype to the iconic cloaking device. Each player that completes the mission will get the Optical Camo. When equipped it will offer a boost to stealth.

Photo Mode



Freeze the action to capture your favorite moments in the Wildlands. With a variety of filters and customization options, you have what you need to create amazing pictures of everything from heat-pumping action to beautiful vistas.

Ghost War

New Classes

Two new classes for Ghost War will be coming with Special Operation 3.

Vanguard



Vanguard is a powerful new addition to the Assault class. Their primary weapons are the L85A2 and SR3M. Vanguard can spot dangers on the field for his teammates with his special ability, Sensor Grenades.

When thrown, these grenades scan the where it lands through solid objects, highlighting any hostiles for all Vanguard and his allies.

Sharpshooter



Sharpshooter is a new Marksman, capable of taking out threats without them ever know he was there. His primary weapons are the M40A5 and the SRSA-1. Sharpshooter specializes in long-range combat, emphasized by his ability: Long Range Specialist.

While aiming, the Long Range Specialist ability automatically charges. At full charge, the next shot negates the effects of sway and bullet drop.

New Maps

Outskirts



The Outskirts map is located on the edge of a Santa Blanca compound near the La Cruz refugee camp. The forest offers many opportunities for flanking, while close quarters combat rages in the nearby base.
