Ubisoft har annonceret, at de udgiver Ghost Recon Online den 10. april, og fordi spillet har ændret sig meget siden produktionen startede, har man valgt at skifte navnet til Ghost Recon Phantoms.
"Feedback from our five million players throughout beta enabled us to continuously increase the content of the game and to improve what makes the game unique, the blending of intense shooters with the teamwork and tactical depth of MOBAs. Ghost Recon Phantoms brings a narrative layer to the game based around The Phantoms, ex-Ghosts and current adversaries who left The Ghosts to pursue personal agendas."
