Caveira or we riot
It came as something of a surprise at this year’s E3when Ubisoft revealedits upcoming titleRainbow Six Quarantine, a game which will seemingly take the wall-blowing, team-killing counter-terrorists maniacs ofRainbow Six Siegeand transport them into a monster-bashing PvE experience.
Very little is known about this venture. We haven’t seen any gameplay footage, nor have we heard much about its concept through spoken word. Butaccording to a Ubisoft financial callheld earlier today, we do at least know that the publisher is hoping to get the squad out fighting mutants by the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, so before April 2020, essentially.
Little more was said aboutQuarantineitself, although Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot noted that the mysterious spin-off would feature the “proven gameplay of the critically acclaimedRainbow Six Siege: Outbreak,” the 2018 eventwhich saw our heroes fight a strange alien menaceout in New Mexico.
The idea of Rainbow vs. Monsters is not a new one.As explained to mebySiegedirector Leroy Athanassoff last year, one of the earliest concepts inSiegewas a mission set to take place in Area 51. This led toOutbreak, which has led toQuarantine. So it seems Ash, Lord Tachanka, Alibi and the rest of the door-kickers have been destined to battle the unknown for years. Personally, I’m very much looking forward to seeing more from this project.
Rainbow Six Quarantineis currently in development at Ubisoft for a 2020 release.
