Ubisoft's latest addition to the critically acclaimed, award-winning Rainbow Six franchise sees Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege invite players to engage in competitive, skill-based and balanced gameplay in a game heavily influenced by real-world tactics in one of the most innovative multiplayer games to date.

Your typical online shooting game often boasts the need for tactics, communication and strategy between players but seldom in this the case. Typically the Call of Duty or Rambo approach to a shooting game is enough to get you through but not in Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege. The developers promised to deliver a game that required communication between allies, tactical thought and strategic development, and they've delivered on every aspect of that promise.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege utilizes a unique Operator system that allows players to unlock, customize and utilize unique characters in every match. Each Operator comes complete with very unique abilities and it is these abilities that players must combine if they hope to progress and become successful in missions. Prior to starting the match you're able to communicate with your allies, choosing what kind of tactics you want to utilize and which Operators you will need to pick in order to fulfill those tactics.

Maybe you want to attempt to rush the main entrance and take out your enemies with heavy grenade tactics and large weapons? Then you'll need to pick Operators that can compliment that tactic, such as using a large Riot Shield to block incoming fire, or an Operator that can use explosives to breach walls and create unique entry points.

Fancy something a bit more Mission Impossible? Descend from the rooftops and utilize entry tactics on the top floor as you choose Operators with the ability to flash, stun and otherwise incapacitate enemies so you can enter without fear of instant death.

The endless variety of tactics and strategies on offer makes Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege one of the most thought provoking online shooting games of the year.
