Ubisoft is reportedly making a new Rainbow Six Vegas game, nearly two decades after Vegas 2

Ubisoft is reportedly developing a new Rainbow Six Vegas game, nearly two decades after the last installment. According to Insider Gaming, the project is currently in early stages of development at Ubisoft Montreal, under the code name Spades. This project is one of three new initiatives reportedly underway at the studio, with another also set in the Rainbow Six universe.

However, Eurogamer has not been able to confirm the report. It remains unclear what format the new game will take, but insiders suggest it is likely to be Vegas 3 rather than a remake of an existing title. Insider Gaming anticipates that Ubisoft will not officially announce the game for several years. Rainbow Six Vegas debuted in 2006, followed by its sequel in 2008.

Since then, the series has focused on Rainbow Six Siege, released in 2015, and in August, Ubisoft announced Rainbow Six Tactics, a single-player, turn-based spin-off developed by Ubisoft Paris, expected in 2027. Rainbow Six now falls under Vantage Studios, the Ubisoft subsidiary established last year that also oversees Assassin's Creed and Far Cry, of which Tencent owns a 26.32 percent share.

Recently, it was reported that Ubisoft is developing two new Assassin's Creed games: one set in ancient Rome and another mobile spin-off set in Jerusalem, following a leak last week. This news came less than a week after Ubisoft addressed the future of the Assassin's Creed series, stating that there are currently no plans for new remakes of past games.
