Rainbow Six: Vegas Reportedly Returning With New Installment

Ubisoft has reportedly greenlit a new installment in the Rainbow Six: Vegas series, reigniting interest in this fan-favorite corner of the franchise. The news comes from an Insider Gaming report, which states that Ubisoft Montreal has been given the green light to begin work on the new game, with the codename "Spades." While the exact title remains uncertain, it is expected to be more like the original Vegas games rather than a remake.

Ubisoft Montreal is reported to be working on this new Vegas game alongside two other projects, though the nature of these projects has not been confirmed. The last Vegas game was released in 2008, and since then, over 20 years have passed, during which time the franchise has seen various iterations, including Rainbow Six Siege and Rainbow Six Extraction.

Despite the long wait, Ubisoft seems to still be in the early stages of development for the new Vegas game, suggesting that we may not see it for a few more years. Ubisoft has also announced other projects, including Rainbow Six Tactics, which is set to launch next year, and a remake of the Splinter Cell series.
