Team Rainbow Returns to Celebrate10th Anniversary of Rainbow Six Franchise in Sin City in 2008
Paris, FRANCE - November 20, 2007 - Today Ubisoft, one of the world's largest video game publishers, announced that it is developing Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six(R) Vegas 2 for next-generation consoles and PC. Developed at Ubisoft Montreal by the same team that created the award-winning Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas, the highly anticipated sequel is scheduled for a March 2008 release. Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is the sixth iteration in the wildly successful Rainbow Six franchise which celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2008 with more than 16 million units sold worldwide to date.

"Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas took the gaming world by storm in 2006 thanks to its technological advances and gameplay innovations," said Yves Guillemot, president and chief executive officer at Ubisoft. "We are convinced that Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 will remain a pioneer in the highly competitive first person shooter genre, bringing more of what Rainbow Six fans love to the table."

The highly anticipated sequel to the winner of numerous awards, including IGN's 2006 Best First Person Shooter and Best Online Game, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 will push the franchise to new heights by adding new gameplay features and even more stunning visuals. Players will encounter an intense solo campaign that uses new tactical possibilities in various locations around Sin City. As expected with one of the pioneer franchises for online multiplayer Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 will also break new ground in both co-op and adversarial modes, while providing unprecedented interaction between the solo and multiplayer modes.

I wonder what game engine Ubisoft will be using , is it gonna be UE3 or the same game engine they use for Vegas just with upgraded details like they did with GRAW2

Yeah baby!

Rumors before was Rainbow Six: New York, but now confirmed Rainbow Six: Vegas 2.... nice!

Looks like same engine to me...i think it's more of an expansion besides the name. (same goes to GRAW 2)



Kinda suck to be American special force nowadays. This is what...the 2nd time the terrorist took over Vegas. Again?
SAS FTW.

Hopefully the live vision cam feature is still in and implement properly. Not like the first one where some can see the custom face whilst some cannot.

Oooooo finally can continue where R6V left off.

OMG ! episod 1 pon tak main lagi !!

Graphics still just as crap as ever

I played vegas. Man, to me is really the most irritating fps game I ever played. Not looking foward to it though. I still prefer ghost recon more then this.

i rather wait for Battlefield : Bad Company. sorry for OT n dont start to flame me.

Well .. RS is mostly a tatical team shooter, if ur team does not follow order ... then ur team is screwed. Happen to me countless of time b4 .. lol

Not team problem. I'm fine with team. The problem is the button changes is so limited. The most I hate most was the check point. Is freaking far. When you almost there and then you die. ZZZzzz.

U wont die .. if u have a good team which support u all the way
