Action-strategy Tom Clancy crossover
Tom Clancy’s Elite Squad is the first mobile game that has been released among Ubisoft titles, featuring a wide range of iconic fighters from some of the most popular Tom Clancy sub-series. The role of the player is to create a squad and train them for combat.
A cross-franchise fantasy
Fans will enjoy this mobile game that brings together popular Ubisoft series in an epic fight against international espionage.
This free-to-play mobile game offers real-time action in 5-vs-5 shooting battles, featuring popular characters from Tom Clancy’s franchise. You’ll see personalities from Ghost Recon, Splinter Cell, Rainbow Six Siege, and The Division in a single elite squad.
Each character has unique abilities and roles which you can take tactical advantage of during combat. Maps from the original titles have been included here as well and just add to the overall familiar feeling of this game.
There are two modes, a story-driven campaign where you play by yourself to save the world, and a multiplayer, guild-versus-guild mode. The real-time mechanics of the latter ensure an engaging, challenging combat experience.
The main portion of the gameplay consists of training, equipping, and upgrading your soldiers’ abilities with a massive selection of gear and weapons. Their power-level growth depends on training, too, and your management plays a pivotal role in determining how effective they are during a battle.
You’ll have to grind for a while to unlock all characters. If you go multiplayer, you can also use villains in your squad. There are also in-game currencies that bring massive boosts, which you can earn through playing or outright purchase.
Where can you run this program?
You can run this game on Android 5.0, iOS 13.0, or later versions.
Is there a better alternative?
Yes. The Tom Clancy series is much-loved and broadly developed, with other titles offering more to the player than this mobile crossover. If you like the story, try Rainbow Six Siege, Ghost Recon, and Splinter Cell.
Our take
This game offers a fantastic experience for any fan of the Tom Clancy series. It is a bit of a shame that the players cannot have more granular control over outcomes of battle more, though.
Should you download it?
Yes, especially if you’re a fan of the venerable Tom Clancy games. It's a great crossover game that features characters across multiple series and gameplay that is challenging but still ensures hours of fun and excitement.
