Ubi Soft announces Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm exclusively for the PlayStation 2
Ubi Soft Entertainment, one of the world’s largest video game publishers, today announced that the company’s Paris studio is currently developing a brand new game from the popular Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon series--exclusively for the Playstation 2. Scheduled to ship for the late 2003, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm is poised to become the latest success story in a series of hit Tom Clancy games from Ubi Soft.

Developed with PlayStation 2 players in mind, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm will fully exploit the capabilities of the platform with features such as the wildly popular voice command, and voice chat systems plus online statistics tracking and ladder ranking. Most importantly, this game will mark the first time that PlayStation 2 fans can take their great ghost action online and learn firsthand why action-packed online game play quickly established Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon as the most popularly played game on the Xbox LIVE online game service.

“The Tom Clancy games are built with gamers in mind, and Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm is a great example of that fact. We knew the Ghost Recon franchise offers great online game play and fans were demanding it so Ubi Soft spent several of its resources to bring Ghost Recon online to the PlayStation 2 as quickly as possible.” said Alain Corre, Ubi Soft’s Managing Director for Europe, the Asia-Pacific region and South America. “We are excited to deliver a great game to the PlayStation2. PlayStation fans deserve the best and we think Jungle Storm will deliver it.”
