Now Playing: Rainbow Six Siege: Crimson Heist Story Trailer
Siege has been one of the biggest comeback stories in gaming this generation. The game launched in 2015 and hit a record of around 40,000 concurrent players back then. As these latest numbers demonstrate, the game continues to grow, even years after release.
Siege’s newest season, Crimson Heist, started on March 17. The season introduces a new version of the Border map with quality-of-life improvements, adding a balcony and some other changes to help better fit the modern state of the game. A new GONNE-6 secondary weapon fires an explosive projectile that can destroy bulletproof gadget.
The next game in the Rainbow Six series was announced as Rainbow Six Quarantine, but Ubisoft has confirmed it will change the name in part due to the global health crisis. A title for the rebrand, Parasite, leaked, but it’s not the real name.
