Rainbow Six Siege drops the heroics for a life of crime, for a limited time

Ubisoft has revealed that Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is changing things up with a new limited time event that will send players back to Hereford for some treasure, whilst also sending them to a new place in time.

This event will last two weeks from May 6 until May 20. In this cracking 5-vs.-5 inspired by the British mob of the 1920’s, gunshots ring through the hallways of the Headquarters. Each Operator will only have a main shotgun equipped, customised with the event’s weapon skins as found in The Grand Larceny Collection and the Roaring Riches Bundle.

While most Operators will be unlocked to play in this event, there are a number of them that won’t be due to gameplay specificities:

• Glaz

• Nomad

• Buck

• Montagne

• Blitz

• Caveira

• Kali

• Clash

• Blackbeard

• Lion

• IQ

• Tachanka

• Recruit

• Twitch

• Mozzie

The Stolen Goods game mode is different from the standard ones. No Hostage, no Area to Secure, no Bombs to Defuse. No Preparation Phase, no Attacker’s drone. However, there are Safeboxes spread throughout the map. Defenders must protect these at all costs, but they can also win rounds by eliminating all their opponents. Attackers, on the other hand, must open a certain amount of Safeboxes, or eliminate all the Defenders. Players will be informed where the Safeboxes are located, alongside adjustments to flooring that will remove select metal beams after destruction, allowing players to be even more creative with their shotguns. Players must be prepared for an amount of destruction never before seen in Rainbow Six Siege.
