Ghost Recon Breakpoint’s first event of 2021 arrives later this week and to kick off Operation Amber Sky, the developers have revealed the latest set of patch notes for title update 3.10.
The patch notes, which were originally detailed on the Ubisoft website, break down all the changes players can expect to see during Operation Amber Sky, as well as in the base game after the event is over. The list of changes is quite long, so let’s dive right in.
The update will be roughly 20GB on all platforms, including PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
New Features
Live Event 3: Operation Amber Sky
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 behaviors:
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.
