TOM CLANCY’S GHOST RECON® 2 SHIPS FOR NINTENDO GAMECUBE™

The War of Tomorrow Engulfs the Nintendo GameCube Today

San Francisco, CA – March 15, 2005 – Ubisoft, one of the world’s largest

video game publishers, announced today that Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon® 2 for

Nintendo GameCube™ has shipped for retail. Developed by Ubisoft’s Shanghai

studio, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon 2 lets players embody Captain Scott

Mitchell, leader of the elite Ghost Recon Special Forces team, in a crucial

mission to defuse a dangerous situation in North Korea in 2007.

To fully immerse gamers in the chaos of the war of tomorrow, Tom Clancy’s

Ghost Recon 2 delivers a killer Lone Wolf single-player mode based on

prototypical soldier-of-the-future combat equipment currently being

developed by the U.S. government, a full team of new Ghosts and a brand-new,

over-the-shoulder camera angle (in addition to the beloved first-person

perspective). The game features unique special effects, cinematic sequences,

supporting characters and industry-leading graphics.

“A brand-new team of Ghosts is storming the Nintendo GameCube this week,”

said Tony Kee, vice president of marketing for Ubisoft. “Captain Scott

Mitchell and his team will amaze players as they strive to maintain world

peace – near-future realism, intense action and an original campaign that

could have been ripped from today’s headlines make Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon

2 a must-have for any Nintendo GameCube owner.”

About Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon 2 for Nintendo GameCube

On July 4, 2007, a North Korean missile base is hacked and used to launch a

cruise missile against the USS Clarence E. Walsh in the Korea Strait. While

U.S. Intelligence suspects that the North Koreans were not responsible for

the attack, the U.S. decides to strictly defend South Korea against possible

North Korean aggression. While they mass troops to defend Seoul, the

Americans also send Third Echelon agent Sam Fisher to North Korea to

investigate. At the same time, the Ghosts are deployed behind enemy lines to

carry out sabotage, reconnaissance and quick strikes against the North

Korean Army (NKA) should the conflict explode. Officially, not a single U.S.

asset is in North Korea.

As the conflict rages, the Ghosts perform a series of successful missions,

including the rescue of a dissident officer from a prison camp. During the

course of these operations, the Ghosts learn that the architect of the

escalation is Major-General Paik, who sees it as an opportunity to seize

power and advance his ambitions.

On July 10, thanks to Third Echelon agent Sam Fisher, a cease-fire is signed

between the U.S. and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK). For

the general public, the war is over, but the actions of Major-General Paik

are troubling. Throughout the fall, U.S. Intelligence gathers evidence that

Paik is not interested in the cease-fire. Instead, he is building a nuclear

program.

In November of 2007, Major-General Paik accelerates the program,

hoping to launch a pre-emptive nuclear strike. He hopes to reverse what he

sees as a cowardly ending to the July crisis, and to force his government to

go to war again.

The Ghosts are once again sent to the DPRK, and must now stop the DPRK

nuclear program in its tracks.

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon 2 carries a “T” (Teen) rating for Violence from the

ESRB, with a suggested retail price of $49.99.
