The game was officially announced just a few months ago but already Ubisoft has announced a delay in the release of Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. The latest game in the military shooter franchise was originally scheduled for release before the end of 2010 but during its financial conference call with investors the publisher now admits the game won't be out until the first quarter of 2011.

The apparent reason has nothing to do with the game's development but rather to the "competitive environment" of the fall 2010 time frame. Without the publisher naming names, we can assume Ubisoft doesn't want to put their new Ghost Recon game up directly against Activision's Call of Duty: Black Ops and EA's revival of the Medal of Honor franchise, both of which are due out this fall.

The next game in the Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon series, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, is expected to release sometime in the fall of this year. Multiplayer beta access will be available over the summer to Xbox 360 players who purchase the new Splinter Cell in April.

We had a feeling about this last week and for once we were right. Ubisoft has officially announced what they have been teasing us about for a year. A new Ghost Recon shooter game is in the works. Officially titled Ghost Recon Future Soldier, the game is due for release before the end of 2010. Ubisoft trademarked the title late last year.

Developed by Ubisoft's Paris studio, the publisher is keeping most details of the game to itself. It does state that the game will feature "prototype high-tech weaponry" and high end tech along with both single and multiplayer modes. There's no official word yet if the game will be released for the PC although almost all of the previous Ghost Recon games have been released for the PC platform.

Update: A "tweet" on the Twitter page of Ubisoft's community manager Kimi Matsuzaki states, "For those wondering: We will tell more about the PC version later." A later "tweet" seems to indicate the PC port will be released sometime after the console versions.
