Follow the Rainbow to the Casino

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas, is going to be the next latest game in the counterterrorism franchise from Ubisoft. The shooter was announced in early March, but gameplay details have just recently hit us.

The game will be handled entirely by Ubisoft Montreal, the same studio that worked on previous Rainbow Six games, as well as Far Cry Instincts Predator and the Prince of Persia series.

A new team will be introduced along with a new leader. Each character will have their own specialty, and Ubisoft emphasizes that tactics will play a major role in the game (they have said that before).

Missions will have multiple ways of being completed, and teammates will suggest alternative methods of reaching objectives, including busting through walls or hacking computers. Multiplayer has also been tweaked, with persistent characters and new weapons and achievements to unlock.

While not much more on release of systems and it’s rating is given we assume that the game will be released on the PS3, PS2, and Xbox. We already know it is releasing on the XBOX360 and most likely the PS3.
