I'm fairly sure just saying that is preceding it, which makes for something of a problem. Well, there's an "Unprecedented narrative".

So it's a new Team Rainbow, and a peculiar new tone if the weirdo rendered trailer is anything to go by.Īpparently you'll be asked to make ethical decisions as you put down the American rebellion, along with some other features announced today. Which, according to this press release, is "capturing the reality of modern-day terrorism"!
RAINBOW 6 PATRIOTS SERIES
As the seemingly forgotten series comes back to life, it's time for a new home-grown enemy, the True Patriots, who are as far as I can tell the militarised wing of the Tea Party movement. The drip-drip of information for Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6: Patriots begins apace now, even though Tom's still furiously at work for at least another year before it's out. "E3 2013: Rainbow 6: Patriots is Next-Gen". "Rainbow 6 Patriots Pre-Orders Removed From GameStop". "Rainbow 6 Patriots Creative Director Is Gone". ^ "Rainbow Six Patriots Gameplay Target Trailer"."VGAs 2011 – Rainbow 6 Patriots Trailer". "Rainbow Six: Patriots – Who Are the True Patriots?". "Rainbow 6: Patriots canceled, replaced by Rainbow Six Siege". "Rainbow 6 Patriots Announced, Coming in 2013". ^ "Rainbow 6 Patriots | Early Concept Footage ".The game was later released on December 1, 2015. Instead, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege was announced as its replacement. On June 9, 2014, it was announced that Patriots and its concept was scrapped. It had also been confirmed that players would also be able to play as the True Patriots in some capacity. Īt E3 2013, Ubisoft confirmed that the game remained in development, but would now be produced for eighth generation consoles.

Minimal news on the game appeared until May 2013, when GameStop removed Patriots from their database of upcoming games and cancelled all pre-orders. In March 2012, it was announced that creative director David Sears, narrative director Richard Rouse III, lead designer Philippe Therien, and animation director Brent George were all removed from the development team. It was stressed that the trailer showed a pre-rendered concept created in 2010 of what a level in the final game might appear like, rather than footage of any current game build.

As Echo Leader, a man who looks up to Wolfe as a father figure, they must stop the True Patriots at all costs even at the price of their own personal morality.Īfter finding "reason to believe that someone may leak preliminary target gameplay footage", Ubisoft chose to pre-maturely announce the game through a trailer on November 4, 2011. To complicate the situation, the new leader of Team Rainbow is James Wolfe, a former Navy SEAL who believes ethics are irrelevant in dealing with the True Patriots. Styling themselves as a populist militia group, the True Patriots have taken it upon themselves to act as judge, jury, and executioner on behalf and avenging the alleged victims of what they see as Wall Street corruption. Team Rainbow is called to New York City to deal with a terrorist group calling itself the 'True Patriots'. Instead, Ubisoft started development on a new Rainbow Six game called Siege. Patriots was cancelled in 2014 after it was announced in 2011. Ubisoft has since stated that they will continue putting Tom Clancy's name on future Tom Clancy titles out of respect for the late author. Due to the death of Tom Clancy in October 2013, concern was raised that this game would become the last to bear his name. It was to be published by Ubisoft, and was developed by the company's Montreal studio, with additional development by Ubisoft Toronto and Red Storm Entertainment. Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6: Patriots is a cancelled first-person shooter video game, part of the Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six series, announced on the cover of the December 2011 issue of Game Informer.
