Introducing Rainbow 6 Patriots

Creative director David Sears unveils a prototype video of the revamped tactical series.

When pitching projects internally, development teams frequently create a target video to illustrate their vision for the game. Rarely does this footage see the light of day outside the confines of the publisher, but today you get a chance to see a prototype of the bold approach Ubisoft Montreal is taking to moving single-player shooter campaigns away from the Call of Duty "follow me" template and into uncharted territory. Watch the video and you'll understand why we chose to feature the game on the cover of our December issue.

  • I'd like to have planning to this. But since they are doing this on consoles I won't have it and that's sad.
  • Main this game looks pretty intense especically the part when he threw the guy off the bridge and then the bomb went off.

  • wow gta5, bioshock infinite, max payne 3, and so on now this i have a feeling this years vga's is gonna one to remember and maybe doom 4????

  • Holy moley.. if the game really focuses on cusp of good and evil like this, I think I will definately enjoy it.. unless of course the scared people of America get uncomfortable with any idea that isn't played out and simple, i.e. evil plan hatched, good guy kills evil bad guys and saves everybody. I guess the "open mindedness" of concerned non gamers will be tested on this one.
  • Man, can't wait until I get the issue. I really want to read more about this game.

  • That was intense. Definitely something to look forward to.

  • Holy crap i cant wait for this!

  • I'm really hoping that Ubisoft can deliver on this preliminary mock-up gameplay. It would be hard to argue that Patriots would be the best laid out FPS of all time. So long as they keep their cover system from Vegas I'm a happy camper.

  • Now that's what I call a gritty shooter. Intense, controversial, and shocking.

  • hopefully its still co-op for some good tactical advantages

  • Haha too bad for that guy

  • Wow. Talk about the potential to be an immensely powerful game. I will not be surprised though if it gets a lot of controversy especially by Fox News. Rainbow Six Patriots really opens up a lot of potential and shows the darker grittier side of keeping people alive and weighing to values of morality and their consequences.

  • This is the first time I've ever cared about Rainbow Six. I hope they can make this vision a reality.

  • 2:35, I'd recognize that voice anywhere! What's Adam Jensen doing working with terrorists!? Seriously though, that was pretty intense. I'm really interested to see how close the actual gameplay will come to this video.
  • YES!! It's about time for a new Rainbow Six. Welcome back.

  • I'm glad that we are killing the terrorists instead of playing as them.

  • This looks amazing....2013 can't come any faster.

  • David Sears is the man

  • After watching this, I sat and stared at the screen for three minutes in a state of shock and awe. This game will be one for the books of video game history.
