The Rainbow Six franchise has long since been solely dedicated to the massive popularity of its latest live-service shooter, Rainbow Six Siege, which has had over a decade of new operators, updates, and numerous spinoffs for players to enjoy. While Siege has been keeping the franchise alive for quite some time now, it seems like Ubisoft is finally ready to revisit some of the older entries in their tactical shooter roster.
According to a Ubisoft source at Insider Gaming, this return is none other than the revival of the Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Vegas saga with a brand new game in development, over 18 years since the release of Vegas 2.
Fans Are Still In For A Wait
While details are still scarce about the recently leaked project, the Rainbow Six: Vegas title is supposedly going under the codename ‘Spades’ for the time being, and will more than likely be the long-awaited release of Rainbow Six: Vegas 3 rather than a simple remake of the previous games in the series.
The currently rumored Rainbow Six: Vegas 3 is far from the only game that recently started development at Ubisoft Montreal either, as at least two other projects are supposedly just starting out, albeit with even fewer details available on what the games will actually be.
These projects are also reportedly separate from the recently leaked Assassin’s Creed games, one of which takes place in Ancient Rome under the codename Mars.
Unfortunately, all of these projects seem to be quite early into their development cycles, meaning that fans will have to wait a few more years before any of them become realized in full, let alone are ready to show to the public, as noted by Insider Gaming.
Thankfully, considering the recent Ubisoft layoffs and the reportedly rocky development of Far Cry 7, having more games to look forward to is far from the worst thing for Ubisoft fans right now, even if a few of them wind up getting canceled or changed drastically during development.
