The AI soldiers can be activated and deactivated via an in-game menu during solo sessions (they’re automatically disabled for coop sessions) and become available to all players after they have completed the game’s opening missions and left the Erewhon camp for the first time. Breakpoint’s raid, Project Titan, will not support AI teammates either, Ubisoft confirmed.

Fury, Fixit and Vasily, as your new teammates are known, are all fully customisable, with players able to pick the gender, face, outfits and tattoos and other markings via the squad customisation tab.

Players will also be able to customise one of their AI partners’ two weapon slots, providing they have the correct weapon blueprint. The secondary weapon will always be a standard ASR to ensure they can still pull off sync shots.

It sounds like the new team will mostly behave in a similar way to the one found in Breakpoint’s predecessor, Ghost Recon Wildlands, with players able to order them to attack, hold, go to and regroup. AI squad members will also try to revive you if you go down.

“We are very happy to release AI Teammates, and we know that expectations are high!” Said Director Elie Benhamou.

“We did our best to include them into the game and world of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, focusing our efforts on enhancing the combat experience, as well as bringing a whole new layer of customization for your role-play activities!”

Ghost Recon Breakpoint is currently available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC.

Are you glad to see the return of AI teammates? Sound off below.
