Ubisoft has announced a July 17 2012 release date for the first Ghost Recon Future Soldier DLC pack. Titled Arctic Strike (in July?) this first add-on brings three new multiplayer maps, a new multiplayer game mode, six additional weapons, a new Guerrilla Mode co-op map, a level cap increase, and some new achievements for the Xbox 360 players.

  • Maps: Riot, Skyline, and Evicted
  • Guerrilla Mode Map: Arctic Base
  • Weapons: Assault Rifles Ghost: F2000, Bodark: CZS805 PDRs: Ghost: Mk17 PDW, Bodark: OCP-11 SMGs Ghost: BT MP9, Bodark: Type 05 JS
  • Multiplayer Mode: Stockade – An objective game type, Stockade awards not only kills but teamwork. Dead players are put into a respawn queue, the Stockade, and must wait for their team mates to get them back in the game. Kills are awarded with one team mate released from the queue per kill, with all queued team mates being thrown back into the action upon completion of an objective.

Sourced from Ubisoft’s official website where no descriptions of their new maps could be found… they did have a couple of pretty pictures though. Arctic Strike will be available for 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox Live or £7.99 (that’s about 10 bucks) via PSN.
