Release date: Mar 8, 2017 Data as of 2026-10-19 View on Steam ↗

Players who really played rate it about the same as Steam overall. Early impressions are weaker, so the first few hours tend to decide whether it clicks. Recent reviews are falling.

Good for

  • Players willing to push through a slow start
  • Players who want to play with friends
  • Players who care about visuals and music

Think twice if you are

  • Players who judge a game in the first hours (early ratings are lower)
  • Players bothered by bugs (reports of crashes and bugs)
  • Players buying on the promise of future updates (complaints about the developers)

Summary

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands has a TrueGG Rating of 75.8%: the positive share among 5,242 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 20+ hours, close to Steam's overall 78.3%. Players who really play it broadly agree with the headline number (all time: 82.9%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 7% of the total, and only 34% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.

Beyond the first hours, approval is fairly even across playtime.

Negative reviews most often mention crashes and bugs and updates and the developers. Positive reviews praise how fun it feels, community and co-op, and graphics and music.

Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 71.0%, similar to all languages.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (76.6% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.

Why it is rated this way

What drives the rating

Complaints center on technical quality (Crashes & bugs). These can be fixed, so check recent reviews too. It is also a game many people bounce off early (early reviews are much less positive than those of players who stuck with it).
