When you talk about tactical multiplayer shooters, you’re able to never go pastTom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siegefrom Ubisoft. This game has been a long-standing asset of the company in the multiplayer gaming territory. This game serves as the successor toTom Clancy’s Rainbow 6: Patriots.
After almost a decade of its release, now it seems it’s time for a sequel toRainbox Six Siegeas well. However, there hasn’t been any confirmation or even a hint from Ubisoft about it. But there is a certain claim from a credible leaker that is making fans dream once again.
Ubisoft is Rumored to Be Working on a New Multiplayer Game
Recently, credibleRainbow Sixleaker and modder Shinny revealed on Twitter that Ubisoft is currently working on a new game. He also stated that the name of the new game is going to be “Rainbow Six Atom“.

So, it’s a no-brainer that the upcoming title is going to be the successor ofRainbow Six Siege. However, this is just a stage name of the project and will be changed later, so we are yet to know about the exact name of the game.

The leaker had already posted a cryptic tweet yesterday, advising everyone to be ready for tomorrow, which means on September 30. Everyone thought it might be an indicator of Ubisoft officially announcing the title.
I hope you guys are ready for tomorrow
This thinking also made sense as Ubisoft had just canceled its Tokyo Game Show presentations. However, later on it was found out that it was the leaker who would go on to reveal the name of the game instead of any official announcement from the company.
Ubisoft Is Going Through a Rough Patch
The current time period doesn’t seem to be too favorable for Ubisoft. Recently, the long-hailed game development and publishing company had to delay the release ofAssassin’s Creed Shadowsto 2025. The game has been facing a lot of criticism latelydue to the inclusion of a black Samurai.

This decision might become fatal for the company as the closest competitor ofShadows,Ghost of Yotei, is releasing in 2025 too. The step of delaying the game came after the company’s acknowledgment ofStar War Outlaws‘s underperformance. In a recently heldtrading call update, company CEO Yves Guillemot stated about the recent sales:
It mostly reflects the softer-than-expected sales for Star Wars Outlaws. We also had behind expectations for XDefiant, which we will give you a bit more detail at the end of October. To a much lesser extent, with a limited impact was a lower expectation for XDefiant.
Being a PvP shooter,XDefiantfailed miserably to put its publishing company back on track in the multiplayer gaming sector. Now, to revive its dominance, the company must take a solid step. AndRainbow Six Atommight be the beginning of it.
