Double front quarter brings fast-paced 6V6 action to Rainbow Six Siege

Ubisoft has been unveiled Rainbow Six Siege xas well as new permanent game modes and shooter double line. Dual Front is a 6V6 game mode with a rebirth, but it still retains the well-known tactical elements of siege.

The double fronts take place on a large map, divided into two lanes, from one team's base to another. Each lane consists of two departments that will have to capture one department at a time by planting a destruction device, similar to planting a bomb in the main game mode. The two biggest differences here are that each team has six players and the team will need to attack new enemy divisions while still defending themselves. Teams can be separated as they please, and after death, you have about 30 seconds of timer before you can get back to the battle. There is also a neutral area in the middle, where optional targets (such as escorting hostages to helicopters) appear, awarding bonuses to the team that successfully completed it.

Another big difference is the operator pool. There are limited number of operators in the pool, with 35 at launch and will rotate regularly. The pool contains both attackers and defenders, and you are free to pick from them. This means you can grab a defense-centric operator to attack and vice versa, creating new strategic approaches to win the game. The match is expected to take about 20-25 minutes, and there is a timer that will automatically end the match in 30 minutes. When the Siege X launches, there will be a map featuring symmetrical lanes, but Ubisoft plans to update and change the map every season.

Duble Front is one of many new features of the Rainbow Six Siege X, which was launched on June 10 as part of the Y10 S2 of the multiplayer shooter.
