In a statement made on the official Ghost Recon 2 website Ubisoft announced that the PC version of Ghost Recon 2 is no more.
“This decision was not an easy one,” read the statement.
“We did not want to disappoint the loyal Ghost Recon fans, but we did not want to risk releasing a final product that did not meet their high expectations. With the launch of Ghost Recon 3 planned for Winter 2005, significant human resources were needed to ensure the quality of the future instalment of the series, thus potentially jeopardizing the quality of either Ghost Recon 2 PC or Ghost Recon 3. Taking into account their close release dates, and the fact that we felt the third opus would be a much more satisfying and evolved gaming experience, we were forced to conclude that it was in the interest of gamers for us to cancel the PC version of Ghost Recon 2. But Ghost Recon 3 on PC will hit shelves the fourth quarter of 2005, so the wait won’t be long, and will definitely be worth it.”
While PC Ghost Recon fans may be disappointed, in truth the console versions of Ghost Recon 2 were pretty streamlined for console play. With Ghost Recon 3 not too far away, it won’t be too long before PC gamers get some more Ghost Recon action.
