Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is the upcoming installment of the acclaimed first-person shooter franchise developed by the renowned Ubisoft Montreal studio for the next generation of consoles and PC.
Inspired by the reality of counter-terrorist operatives across the world, Rainbow Six Siege invites players to master the art of destruction. Intense close-quarters confrontations, high lethality, tactics, team play, and explosive action are at the centre of the experience.
The multiplayer gameplay of Rainbow Six Siege sets a new bar for intense firefights and expert strategy in the rich legacy of past Rainbow Six games.
Counter-terrorist units
Counter-terrorist operatives are trained to handle extreme situations, such as hostage rescue, with surgical precision. As 'short range' specialists, their training is concentrated on indoor environments. Operating in tight formations, they are experts of close-quarters combat, demolition, and coordinated assaults.
The siege gameplay
For the first time in Rainbow Six, players will engage in sieges, a brand new style of assault. Enemies now have the means to transform their environments into strongholds: they can trap, fortify, and create defensive systems to prevent breach by Rainbow teams.
To face this challenge, players have a level of freedom unrivalled by any previous Rainbow Six game. Combining tactical maps, observation drones, and a new rappel system, Rainbow teams have more options than ever before to plan, attack, and diffuse these situations.
Procedural destruction
Destruction is at the heart of the siege gameplay. Leveraging Ubisoft Montreal's proprietary Realblast engine, players now have the unprecedented ability to destroy environments. Walls can be shattered, opening new lines of fire, and ceilings and floors can be breached, creating new access points. Everything in the environment reacts realistically, dynamically, and uniquely based on the size and caliber of bullets you are using, or the amount of explosives you have set. In Rainbow Six Siege, destruction is meaningful, and mastering it is often the key to victory.

Worth it at its release price, so £11.39 is absolute daylight robbery. I've said it before and I'll say it again, best FPS game on the market.

You should probably remove those screenshots because, they're from the alpha/beta.

Great game and seems Ubisoft will be supporting this for a good long while yet. However, I wouldn't recommend it for people that will be playing multiplayer only with random players unless you like meeting incredibly toxic people.

Yea, you really do need people on the mic to talk you through where they died etc, I have played it alone a lot and still enjoyed it but if you have a team of 5 you are onto a winner

I usually play with 2 or 3 friends. This evening there were 3 of us and we had 2 random guys on our team. Everyone was friendly and we won 4 or 5 matches straight as we all worked well together. Friended them so hopefully more of the same in the future. However last night we had a couple morons and those matches were horrible.

Like FPS eg Destiny but slow on multiplayer. Can you play this on your own like the Division?

It's really a multiplayer game. The only singleplayer elements are the terrorist hunt mode and 11 missions designed to help you learn the main mechanics of play.
