And another F2P game bites the dust. Ubisoft has just announced that Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Phantoms will go offline on December 1st. Ghost Recon Phantoms was a tactical, 3rd-person, team-based shooter that allows players to engage in fierce 16-player online matches, and was released on April 10th, 2014.
As the Ghost Recon Phantoms team wrote:
“The shutdown of the game will take place on December the 1st. The game will stay available until then, and we wish you a lot of fights until the end. The in game shop will remain available, but you won’t have any more the possibility to purchase Ghost Coins. “
And that is that.
For the record, back in December 2014, Ubisoft claimed that Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Phantoms had close to 8 million registrations worldwide and was among the top ten free-to-play games on Steam.

Damn…..such a great tactical game, I’m sad to see this end. Goodbye GRP. 🙁
Loving the sarcasm
Your sarcadar is very advanced and sensitive, even I’m not that sure with such subtle sarcastic layers.
Good riddance.
Maaan, This is why i love Multiplayer games “…will be shut down on…”
Soulless f2p grind game goes out of business, great news.
Good. Good.
I told ya so when it came out no one plays it, i gotta say they improved it when they recalled it phantoms. Oh well this is why i dont care about online games, they get shut down and bye bye money you spend in em.
good, it sucked.
I played this a few times. Had a wonderful time discussing burger joints with a random guy while a little kid screamed at us to shut up and be tactical. Lovely time.
hahahahah
2 years! UBI!!! 2 Years is what you give us! Don’t trust Ubisoft!
It often suffices to look at covers of games to see the devs’ attitude. For example, CoD’s first cover arts were serious but they were progressively becoming more and more “supersoldierish”. That guy from Black Ops with two rifles and two pistols was ridiculous.
the ost man so so aw yis
I miss real video games.
