Ubisoft promptly canceled Ghost Recon Frontline's upcoming alpha test, and although no official reason was given, the likely scenario is that it wanted the discourse to die down before any gameplay was shown. When Ubisoft released the first trailer for Ghost Recon Frontline, fans flocked to YouTube to dislike it, expressing their disappointment and skepticism in the comments section.

So, with the announcement that the next Ghost Recon is going free-to-play, and will be a battle royale no less, fans of the series weren't all that pleased, especially when Ubisoft confirmed that the game is intended to be a live-service title. The last few Ghost Recon entries have been flooded with microtransactions and barebones mechanics, with poor visuals that make them feel instantly outdated before they've even hit store shelves. What was once a bold, tactical third-person shooter series that was unafraid to innovate and stand out from the crowd has become another run-of-the-mill open-world Ubisoft franchise, barely standing out from the rest of the publisher's library, let alone from the rest of the video game landscape.
Over the last decade or so, Ubisoft has really dropped the ball of the Ghost Recon franchise.

However, there's one other competitor that might rear its head this year: Ghost Recon Frontline. And with the announcement of a Call of Duty: Warzone 2, coming with Modern Warfare 2's release later this year, the game is primed to duke it out once again for the top spot. Though it hasn't had a great track record over the last year or so, Call of Duty: Warzone has comfortably taken a spot at the top of the battle royale pyramid, right alongside Fortnite and Apex Legends. While most recent battle royales haven't lasted more than a few months, failing to reach the monumental heights of Fortnite, some have stood their ground, with Call of Duty: Warzone being one of them. Because of Fortnite, PUBG, and a few other 2017 battle royales, the market has now been flooded with pale imitations. Just as Doom did for first-person shooters, and Dark Souls did for action-RPGs, Fortnite has shown just how popular the battle royale genre can be, and just how much money is in it for publishers. The battle royale genre is a bit of a crowded one right now.
