by Rainbow Six Siege is a well-known First-Person tactical shooter game available on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. Now, Ubisoft just announced yesterday that it will be on mobile devices soon. The announcement trailer showed what players could expect from the graphics and gameplay of the upcoming mobile game.
The basic concept of tactical siege and tactical defense is still here in the mobile version. This gameplay consists of the attackers attempting to siege the area while trying to accomplish the objectives. Meanwhile, the defenders can still barricade their areas to try to slow down or completely stop them. The main difference will be the downgrade in the overall graphics to accommodate the mobile device’s specs.
