Ubisoft Greenlights Rainbow Six Vegas 3 at Montreal

Ubisoft has reportedly given its Ubisoft Montreal team the go-ahead to begin work on a new Rainbow Six: Vegas installment, codenamed "Spades." The details come from an Insider Gaming report by Tom Henderson, who says three new projects are in the works at Ubisoft Montreal, one of them a new Rainbow Six: Vegas release. Reported by Destructoid, IGN and The Gamer.

The original Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Vegas launched in 2006 on PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PSP, followed by a sequel two years later. Henderson says it is currently unclear what the game will be, but his sources state the project is "likely Vegas 3 rather than a remake."

Henderson said one of the other two projects at Ubisoft Montreal is another title in the Rainbow Six universe. Rainbow Six Extraction arrived in 2022. Rainbow Six Tactics was announced in August and will launch next year.

No official statement has been issued by Ubisoft regarding the greenlight.
