Ubisoft Is Reportedly Bringing A Beloved Series Back After Nearly Two Decades

Ubisoft is reportedly developing a third installment in the beloved Rainbow Six: Vegas series, nearly two decades after its last release. The franchise's newest game, codenamed Spades, is one of three new projects recently greenlit at Ubisoft Montreal. While the specifics of the game's gameplay and mechanics remain undisclosed, the original Rainbow Six: Vegas titles were tactical shooters featuring story-driven single-player campaigns and mixed first- and third-person shooter multiplayer modes.

It has been over 18 years since the last Rainbow Six: Vegas game was released, and the prospect of a modern co-op shooter or a Call of Duty-like Rainbow Six game is exciting. Ubisoft has recently shown interest in expanding its Rainbow Six portfolio, with the mobile game experiments now delisted and Rainbow Six Tactics debuting at Gamescom earlier this year.

The release window for Rainbow Six: Vegas 3 remains unknown, but the franchise's return could mark a significant moment for fans of the series.
