Players can also look forward to nine new missions spread across three categories – Breach, Spy, Steal –, five new gas areas around the map that see them scrambling to find filters for their masks, alongside seven new locations for them to breach into using explosives.
As far as install size goes, you can expect a 20 GB download across all platforms. Here are all the changes and additions coming to Ghost Recon Breakpoint in Update 3.1.0, as per the full patch notes:
NEW FEATURES
LIVE EVENT 3: OPERATION AMBER SKY
As we head into 2021, we are thrilled to be releasing our third Live Event. Similar to our previous Live Events, Operation Amber Sky will bring new limited-time content starting on January 21 and will end on February 1.
The event will bring out nine new missions:
- Breach missions
- Spy missions
- Steal missions
NEW GAMEPLAY ELEMENTS
Introduction of five toxic gas areas and seven new breach locations that will offer new player approach.
- Gas Mask Feature: While in a lethal gas zone, players will have a limited time before their filters degrade. Players will have to gather filter charges or head to a recharging station so that they can survive in the gas.
- Breaching: Players will breach into these new buildings by placing explosive charges on the access doors. Enemy AI will be in alert state and hold their positions to defend the building.
- Three new AI Teammates from Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six® Siege with unique behaviours:
- Thatcher: Special Skill: Will use his EMP grenade to sabotage any active ground drone, turret, or mortar.
- Ash: Special Skill: Will use her grenade launcher to explode explosive barrels or populated vehicles.
- Finka: Special Skill: Will be able to heal or even revive players when their health reaches a dangerous amount, providing a health and weapon stability buff for a short period of time.
