Extrema Ratio is one of the most important International manufacturers in the field of tactical knives for professional uses, and its popularity has constantly grown along the past twenty years.

A popularity that has grown on the side of the many security professionals, who use Extrema Ratio knives in the field, in the real life, as well as on the side of the tens of thousands of passionate Extrema Ratio collectors all around the World.

Extrema Ratio has just announced that its knives are now part of the vast choice of accessories available to the players of Ubisoft’s latest videogame, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Not a small achievement, if we consider that the number of players moving around this kind of role play games counts in terms of millions.

In the eleventh and latest installment of the saga that brings the name of the late techno-thriller author Tom Clancy, officially launched on October 4th, 2019, the player will control a member of a secret U.S. Special Forces team stranded behind enemy lines on a hostile south Pacific island.

A third person shooter videogame, Ghost Recon Breakpoint takes place in a fully open game world where the wlilderness blends seamlessly to high-tech environments, incarnating the darkest fears of what could be the environment in which asymmetric warfare could take place in the near future.

Like all the previous installments of the franchise, Ghost Recon Breakpoint stands out for its accuracy in the inventory of weapons and equipments available to the player, following a realism—oriented mindset, focused on mirroring in the game world the state-of-the-art of technologies available to real-life operators serving in élite combat units around the globe.

Such a realistic approach made sure that Extrema Ratio knives, due to the reputation of excellence that they enjoy among professional operators worldwide, would become the lead choice (yet not the only one) of blades for hand-to-hand combat in Ghost Recon Breakpoint.
