How to Use the Drone in Ghost Recon Breakpoint

First things first, you’ll have to actually get the drone before you can use it. You’ll need to play through a bit of the game and get to Erewhon Cave. At that point you’ll get the drone as a quest reward, so just play through the story until you have it.

Now that you have the tool all you need to do is press up on the D-pad to bring it out. Keep in mind that when you bring the drone out you’ll be controlling it, and your character will be locked in place until you put it away.

The drone is primarily used for surveying the battlefield and getting an idea of the situation before you jump into combat.

By piloting it around you can get a lay of the land, and you can mark any enemy you see while piloting it. You can also use it like binoculars and focus on any question-mark icon you see in order to get a quick description.

It’s your most useful recon tool to know what you’re jumping into, so make sure to use the drone often.

To sum up how to use the drone in Ghost Recon Breakpoint.

  1. Progress through the game until you reach Erewhon Cave, at which point you’ll get the drone as a quest reward.

  2. Now just press up on the D-pad to bring out your drone and fly it around.

    The tool can help you survey areas and put markers on enemies.

That’s everything you need to know about how to use the drone in Ghost Recon Breakpoint.
