Ubisoft Postpones Rainbow Six Siege Mobile

Ubisoft’s Rainbow Six (R6) Siege Mobile, initially slated for a December 2023 release, has faced a delay, with a new launch date set for September 2024. App Store users observed the revised date, sparking both anticipation and disappointment among fans. While Ubisoft hasn’t officially addressed the delay, insights from Reddit and DroidLocal, along with mixed feedback from beta testers, suggest ongoing adjustments.

Gaming delays are not unfamiliar, even for major studios like Ubisoft, as seen with the rescheduled Skulls & Bones release in February 2024. Rainbow Six Siege Mobile, a mobile adaptation of the popular PC game, promises a tactical 5v5 shooter experience with diverse Operators and maps. Despite the setback, Ubisoft has showcased 10 Attackers and 9 Defenders, each equipped with unique abilities and gadgets. Initial maps include Bank, Border, Clubhouse, and Oregon, with more to come.

The game is currently in beta testing for select Android and iOS devices, providing enthusiasts with a glimpse of its potential. While the extended wait may disappoint fans, the adage that good games necessitate time holds true. Rainbow Six Siege Mobile’s new target release is September 2024, and those eager to experience it firsthand can still participate in the beta testing phase.
