Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier is a third-person tactical shooter video game developed and published by Ubisoft for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows. It was released in May and June 2012. Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier was announced to be in development by Ubisoft on January 22, 2009. The game has a futuristic take on the Ghost Recon series. The campaign has settings such as Bolivia, Zambia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Russia, and Norway.
In 2024, a four-Man Ghost Recon squad led by Joe Ramirez is deployed to Nicaragua to disrupt weapons trafficking in the region; as they inspect a convoy they ambushed, a dirty bomb is remotely detonated, killing the team. Following this, Ghost team “Hunter”, consisting of “Ghost Lead” Capt Cedric Ferguson, Staff Sergeant John Kozak, Master Sergeant Robert “Pepper” Bonifacio, and Sergeant First Class Jimmy “30K” Ellison, are deployed to investigate the source of the bomb. The team ships out from Fort Bragg, North Carolina under the supervision of Major Scott Mitchell.
Mitchell informs the team of their new mission to rescue an arms dealer named Paez in Sucre, Bolivia who has information about the bomb’s origin.[19] Hunter rescues Paez and then proceeds to follow the trail of weapons: First, to a refugee camp in Western Province, Zambia, where they eliminate local warlord Dede Macaba; to Nigeria, where they rescue CIA SAD officer Daniel Sykes from private military company Watchgate; to Peshawar, Pakistan, where they capture Russian arms dealer Katya Prugova; to the Kola Peninsula in Russia, where the team destroys an arms cache at a remote Arctic base; and finally to an airfield in Kaliningrad, where they intercept and destroy a missile guidance system, causing an international incident.
Some time later, a nuclear missile fired from Russia impacts London, but the nuclear warhead is eliminated at the last minute by the American missile shield. The launch is traced to Dagestan and is believed to be the work of a rogue Russian special operations group known as Raven’s Rock, of which Prugova was an associate, with ties to ultranationalist political elements in Russia. Hunter is ordered into Dagestan to rescue a Georgian Special Forces squad who went to investigate the launch site. During the rescue operation, the team is ambushed by Russian Spetsnaz that have access to high-tech equipment on the same level as the Ghosts, and they later discover that these soldiers are part of the elite “Bodark” (Werewolf) unit, which have sided with Raven’s Rock.
Soon after, Raven’s Rock stages a coup and manages to take over the majority of Russia, although a few loyalist Russian forces opposing the new government are scattered around the country. Hunter heads to northern Russia to secure some drilling ships to supply the loyalists with a steady flow of oil. Afterwards, the team is assigned to rescue a loyalist general who is the de facto leader of the resistance movement. After destroying artillery attacking the general’s forces, the team is pinned down by overwhelming Raven’s Rock forces, until air support arrives and eliminates the hostile forces. Kozak is then tasked with a solo operation to rescue deposed Russian President Volodin from a prison in Siberia. Kozak is successful, and Hunter then protects President Volodin in his return to Moscow, and eliminates the Raven’s Rock commander coordinating the city’s defense. The Raven’s Rock forces are eventually overthrown and the loyalists manage to retake the country.
Major Mitchell then gives Hunter intelligence on the location of the seven other leaders of Raven’s Rock, and the team is sent on a clandestine operation to eliminate them. After eliminating six of the seven, the team chases the last member, code-named “Ace”, to a train station, where they wound him. The wounded Ace taunts the team that they will not kill him because the American government will stop them. Immediately after, Major Mitchell radios Hunter ordering them to stand down, stating that Ace is to be taken alive and brought back to the United States. At that point a train comes, and Ace, wounded on the tracks, calls for the team to save him, reminding them that their orders were to keep him alive. The team leaves him on the tracks, as they were explicitly ordered “not to touch him”, and Hunter leaves the area as Ace is run over by the oncoming train to make his death look like an accident.
