Rainbow Six Siege has a new event, and it is ideal to calm the wait for Extraction after its delay

Containment invites two teams of five to fight from August 3 to 23 in the Ubisoft shooter.

Ubisoft presents Containment , a new Rainbow Six Siege themed PvP event inspired by the upcoming video game in the franchise, Rainbow Six Extraction . It will be in effect from August 3 to 23 in the Ubisoft shooter, and calls two teams of five players to travel to the French Consulate in Ivory Coast where the chimera bacteria roam freely and seek to expand.

“We interrupt our regular broadcast to report a ‘situation’ of unprecedented magnitude. Apparently, an unknown life form has settled in the French Consulate in Côte d’Ivoire. A team of REACT agents has been dispatched to neutralize the threat, but in the presence of humanoid creatures willing to stop them, the question arises as to what is the purpose of this entity. Has it come simply to destroy … or to replace us all? “, describes Ubisoft.

Attackers and defenders fight in teams of five to contain an outbreakPlayers will be able to choose between being React and containing the outbreak, or choosing to become Proteans and defend their expansion. The first group consists of five agents (IQ, Ace, Blackbeard, Amaru, Zero, etc.) equipped with their usual arsenal, while the second is made up of monstrous versions of other known agents (Aruni, Jäger, Kaid, Mira and Warden) lethal in close combat and very fast although they do not have their weapons.

In Containment, attackers and defenders fight for the bacteria’s nests . The attackers must destroy them, and the defenders must protect them. First you have to kill the secondary nests to reach an elite nest in a limited time. Of course, you can end the game by annihilating your opponent

Rainbow Six Extraction Launch

Ubisoft acknowledges being inspired by Extraction for the design of this themed event, which will bring with it 33 new elements . Extraction was due to hit stores this year, but its launch was postponed to 2022 a few weeks ago in search of more time to deliver an optimal user experience. If you want to know more about this shooter, you can check the impressions with Rainbow Six Extraction by Mario Gómez in which he was optimistic with the production.
