Tom Clancy may have passed, but his name will live on forever in the hearts of gamers because Ubisoft will never let it die. To say there have been quite a few games with “Tom Clancy’s” stamp of approval on them – the most recent of which being the just-announced Ghost Recon Breakpoint – would be an understatement. So, let’s walk back through the multitude of reviews to see how each game under the military-thriller umbrella performed, from the first-person shooters to the third-person stealth action to strategy games and arcade flight sims.

Pre-Order Ghost Recon: Breakpoint To Get Beta Access

A new entry in the Ghost Recon series is on the way this year. Ubisoft officially revealed Ghost Recon: Breakpoint during a world premiere presentation on Thursday. The game is slated to launch for PS4, Xbox One, and PC this October but some players will have a chance to go hands-on with it a little early thanks to an upcoming beta.

Those who pre-order any edition of Ghost Recon: Breakpoint will receive access to the game’s beta test. Ubisoft hasn’t yet announced when the beta will take place, only stating that it will occur “closer to launch,” but this will likely be most fans’ first chance to try the game’s numerous new mechanics out ahead of its release.

Breakpoint will launch in standard, Gold, Ultimate, and Wolves Collector’s editions. In addition to beta access, those who pre-order any edition will receive a Sentinel Corp. pack that includes exclusive gear, while those who spring for the Gold, Ultimate, or Collector’s versions will get access to the full game three days early and an assortment of other goodies. You can read more details on those in our Ghost Recon: Breakpoint pre-order guide.

Breakpoint is a sequel to 2017’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands. The game sends players to Auroa, a fictional island in the Pacific, to investigate the military tech corporation Skell Technology after the company has gone radio silent. However, players quickly discover the island has been taken over by a military group known as the Wolves, led by former Ghost Cole D. Walker, who is portrayed by actor Jon Bernthal and appeared in Wildland’s recent Operation Oracle update.

New in Breakpoint are stealth and survival elements; players will be able to cover themselves in mud to avoid detection and will need to treat any wounds they sustain. The game also features distinct character classes that will determine what perks and abilities you’ll use. Ubisoft says four classes will be available at launch, with more to come later. Solo, co-op, and PvP modes will all also be available right at launch.

Ghost Recon: Breakpoint releases on October 4. We recently had a chance to go hands-on with the game and thought it was promising and concerning. Despite its prevalent military themes, however, Ubisoft insists the game isn’t making political statements.

Netflix Partners With Dark Horse Entertainment for Future Series

Following the success of The Umbrella Academy, Netflix and Dark Horse Entertainment have announced that they will continue to work together for both TV and film projects.

Under this new deal, Netflix will have a first look at Dark Horse’s IP for both film and TV and both parties have already started exploring what will be coming next.

In addition to The Umbrella Academy, Netflix and Dark Horse also collaborated on Jonas Åkerlund’s feature film Polar, which we said was “bolstered by

Mikkelsen’s memorable performance, but can’t overcome a lackluster supporting cast.”

The Umbrella Academy, which was seen by over 45 million people, was recently renewed for a second season with the main cast set to return. The first season was influenced by the comic book series The Umbrella Academy: Apocalypse Suite and, in our review, we said “The Umbrella Academy blends self-aware humor with stylish storytelling to deconstruct an already overpopulated genre.”

Opinion: Why Endgame’s Treatment of Hulk Is So Disappointing

Spoiler Alert! There are tons of spoilers for Avengers: Endgame, Infinity War and much of the MCU below. You’ve been warned!

With so many beloved characters crammed into Avengers: Endgame, even with a three-hour run time some were bound to get short shrift. It’s nevertheless shocking and disappointing that the Hulk, one of the most popular original Avengers and the second-longest tenured MCU hero, is almost completely absent from both Endgame and Infinity War.

Wait a second, you might say. Hulk is all over Endgame! The simple truth, however, is that the character featured in Endgame — helpfully dubbed Professor Hulk by the internet in honor of a similarly merged version from the comics — is not the Hulk at all.
