Ubisoft has released a major update for Ghost Recon Wildlands that adds a 60 frames-per-second performance mode on current-generation consoles, fulfilling a request players have made since the game launched nine years ago. The change matters because it improves responsiveness and visual smoothness in a still-popular older title, and has prompted some fans to praise Ubisoft for supporting it long after release.

The update is available for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S players, bringing Wildlands closer to the performance standard of newer console games. Fans on social media welcomed the surprise patch, with one saying it had earned Ubisoft “some respect”, although the article notes the company has not provided extensive details about the update.
