Free-to-Spray
Rainbow Six Siegeis one of the finest shooters in the genre’s history. It just is. I don’t make the rules. And the tactical multiplayer title is renowned for its scalpel-precise, recon-heavy, itchy trigger finger mentality, one that sets it apart from some of the more chaotic and arcade examples of the FPS genre.
Siege‘s method has won over millions upon millions of players, and publisher Ubisoft is now looking to bring that same intense experience to small screens everywhere, with the announcement ofRainbow Six Mobile, a literal pocket-sized edition ofRainbow Six Siege, currently in development for iOS and Android platforms. Check out the reveal trailer below to see the game in action.
As you can see, (and unfortunately hear),Rainbow Six Mobileis hoping to replicate the intense 5v5 action of its bigger brother, albeit in handheld form.Rainbow Six Mobilewill feature key elements of theSiegemeta, including Attacker vs. Defender gameplay, drones, operator abilities, destructible environments, booby traps, wall reinforcements, and much more besides. It’s a pretty mammoth and ambitious task, and that’s before you even consider transitioningSiege‘s twitchy, pixel-precise gameplay to touchscreen controls.
Ubisoft has not offered a release window forRainbow Six Mobile, but has noted that the game will eventually roll out as a free-to-play release. In addition, the developer has allayed concerns that the development ofR6Mwill reduce focus on the originalRainbow Six Siege, telling the community that the original dev squad remains committed to the original version ofSiege, currently in its first season of its seventh year.
