In 2011, Ubisoft announced Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6: Patriots. It was supposed to be another installment in the famous tactical shooter series, this time focusing on combat with a terrorist organization called True Patriots. Since then, years have passed, and the project slowly faded away. Finally, the publisher decided to present Rainbow Six: Siege, tailor-made for multiplayer gameplay. This title replaced Patriots, which did not meet the French company's expectations.
This PC/Windows game features anti-terrorist special forces skirmishes with criminals. The game was built using AnvilNext technology, the engine used in several other Ubisoft titles, including the Assassin's Creed series, For Honor, and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands.
Before you start playing Rainbow Six: Siege, you choose your soldier's specialization. Each time you play, you can decide whether you want to erect barricades as Castle, remove obstacles as Termite, paralyze enemy communication as Silence, open doors as Fresno, wield a large sledgehammer as Sled, or poison enemies as Smoke.
