Based on the best-selling Tom Clancy franchise, Ghost Recon Online is Ubisoft's first entry into the MMOTPS space and they bring with it over a decade of shooting experience. Forget your preconceptions about free online shooting games and enter a truly unique third-person shooting experience.

As with many of today's online shooting games Ghost Recon Online is a class-based title, giving players the opportunity to play as one of three classes. There's Assault, Recon and Specialist, but each class has access to different weaponry, equipment and abilities, making a balanced team a major factor in success. Recon appears to be the most played class as not only can they turn invisible but they can also use abilities that highlight enemies on-screen for their entire team, offering a massive tactical advantage for a team that can coordinate the Recon's abilities with a team assault.

Other exciting feature in Ghost Recon Online is the ability to use cover. This is a very rare feature in online shooting games but is quite popular on console titles such as Gears of War and Perfect Dark. Using your space bar you can take cover behind practically any object or wall in the game, giving you buffs to stability, range and damage. This unique feature adds a whole new depth of tactics to an overused genre, making it one of the games most defining features.

Whether you're running through the Subways or exploring a snowy terrain, Ghost Recon Online is arguably the greatest third-person shooter currently available as a free to play title. Ghost Recon Online brings the AAA third-person experience to the free to play MMO space. There's an abundance of online shooters available in today's market but very few ooze the quality of Ghost Recon Online.
