Rainbow Six Mobile is now available on iOS and Android, and pre-registration is already open.

 

Rainbow Six Mobile, a mobile spin-off of Rainbow Six Siege, has been unveiled by Ubisoft. The business revealed in a blog post that they had formed an own team to work on the project and not divert resources from the main Rainbow Six Siege team.

The project will be led by a team of industry experts from AAA studios and mobile studios from the company's Montreal headquarters. They emphasised that this is a team that is completely focused on the project, and that the original Siege team is unaffected.

The development team also stated that they have remade the game from the bottom up for mobile, having spent three years on the project thus far. While the main gameplay and characters are comparable to those seen in Rainbow Six Siege, the team has "rebuilt everything from the bottom up with mobile usability in mind."

This features a new control scheme "created exclusively for smartphones" as well as "substantial improvement of the UI and in-game visual presentation."

The developers stated that their objective was not to have people move to the mobile version of siege, but rather to provide a complementing experience to existing siege gamers who could enjoy the game on the go, in short spurts. They also view this as a fantastic chance to bring in new players, allowing the game to be played by a far bigger audience.
