Tom Clany’s Rainbow Six Siege: Still Going Strong


By Azaan Qamar


Rainbow Six Siege is a must play game available on PS4, Xbox, and PC. If you are an experienced gamer or just new to video games Rainbow Six Siege will be very fun for you. Rainbow Six Siege is a competitive first person shooter that has a unique cast of characters. The game is 5 V 5 with a max of 10 players in a game. The two different teams are attackers and defenders. Attackers are forced to use teamwork and tactical plays to break into the building that the defenders are guarding. They can break in using certain strategies and characters.For example if you play as Thermite he can use explosives to break through reinforced walls that were put up by defenders.This will allow the attacking team an entry point to go take over the building.

 The Defenders on the other hand get characters that can help put up Defensive items or traps to slow down the attacking team or to eliminate them. Defenders have to defend their objective which is normally a bomb site that the attacking team needs to defuse.The butter and bread of this game is their operators(characters) with each character being incredibly unique. Each character has their own readable story, unique ability which is important to your team play, and unique weapons/loadouts. Also to win a round in Siege if one team is eliminated the opposing team will win or if the attackers successfully defuse the bomb site then they will win.This game takes place across a bunch of beautiful maps with such breathtaking graphics. Some of my personal favorite maps are House a simple nice map with quick action, Chalet with a lot of tactical spots and freedom,and Kafe Dostoyevsky with a nice holiday vibe that makes it enjoyable.

The first team to win 3 rounds wins, after every round each team switches sides so attackers become defenders and defenders become attackers.What is fun is that every round in Siege you will have a completely different experience from the last. For example one round you will have a plan with your team and execute it flawlessly then the next round you can have a plan but something can go wrong because of an enemy operator using their gadget to counter your team’s gadgets. This game released December 1,2015 but over the years has become one of the most popular games with a growing playerbase.The thing that makes this game different from the rest is normally a video game that comes out has a year normally before players start leaving, but Siege has a content updates every 3 months adding 2 new operators and a new map to keep the game fresh and enjoyable.They have a yearly roadmap for every year to show what content is coming out.
