Summary
An added dimension isn't the only new element to Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon series in Shadow Wars. This 3DS launch title will also see the emphasis put very firmly on strategy gaming.
Taking on a style that might seem familiar if you've ever played Advance Wars or Fire Emblem, Shadow Wars places you above the action, enabling you to command your unit from your lofty vantage point.
Russian ultranationalist Yuri Treskayev is attempting to seize power in Eastern Europe and it's up to you and your team to stop him. You'll trek from the sweltering deserts of Kazakhstan to the villages of Ukraine and the harsh frozen lands of Siberia on your mission to shut down the secret Dead Hand bases Treskayev is using to build a drone army.
There are numerous ways to get your unit into shape. You've got six different character classes to populate your team with, including Commando, Sniper, Recon, Engineer, Gunner and Medic. You can kit them out with top of the range gear with more skills and equipment unlocking as you progress, as well as training them up to peak performance.
There's plenty of combat to drag them through, too. Ubisoft boasts some 37 missions and 30 hours of gameplay, not to mention multiplayer options!
