Ubisoft has issued patch notes for the March 24 Title 2.0.0 update to Ghost Recon Breakpoint, which looks to make some major changes to the open-world shooter. This comes after Ubisoft warned that the coronavirus outbreak could delay the patch.

　　The update includes a crossover adventure with Splinter Cell's Sam Fisher, similar to his appearance in Ghost Recon: Wildlands. Ubisoft has been teasing the adventure with Fisher's iconic glowing headgear, and a new trailer shows off some of the story beats for this team-up mission.
