48 million suspected team-killers… I kid
Ubisoft has proudly announced that their ultra-tough team shooterRainbow Six Siegeshows no signs of holding back on the door-kicking and window-smashing just yet, having passed a milestone of 50 million players.
First released back in 2015,Rainbow Six Siegemeandered along quietly for some time before Ubisoft decided to double-down on support for the online multiplayer title, while also adding new maps and operators to the game on a seasonal basis. Today,Rainbow Six Siegehas grown intoquite the phenomenon within the eSports community, and is renown for its twitchy, unforgiving gameplay and strong focus on psychology, reads, and teamwork.
Of course, it isn’t perfect. Like many online multiplayer titles,Siegesometimes suffers from severe toxicity within its community, which can lead to in-fighting, booting and team-killing in abundance. To its credit, Ubisoftworks hard to fight this menace,implementing new ideasanddishing out banslike there’s no tomorrow. While a few bad eggs will always exist inRainbow Six Siege, it’s worth noting that the game remains one of the smartest and most engaging shooters ever devised.
