I have such… special memories of my entire squad KIAed in Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear, and now it seems I might be able to revisit all of that, if rumours of a new Rainbow Six title are true. The doctors say it will be good for me.
The news comes via Kotaku’s industry infiltration team.
“Rainbow Six will be a far more story-driven game than previous iterations of the Tom Clancy branded title. The game is meant to take a step in a different direction, telling a bigger, much more gritty cinematic story than previous versions of the game,” writes Brian Crecente.
“In this still-to-be-titled Rainbow Six, players will be tasked with stopping a homegrown terrorist group operating in America. The group, fed up with the greed of Wall Street and the government that acts to protect them, decides to target New York City.
“While the gameplay is based on some classic Rainbow Six mechanics, there is a cover system that takes you out of the first-person perspective and into the third.”
Ubisoft is, of course refusing to comment on any other this. But if it weren’t true, they’d deny it, right? Right.
