Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege

Ubisoft’s Rainbow Six Siege has been delayed to December 1st. It was originally meant to release on October 13th with a closed beta for September 24th.

In an official statement, Ubisoft said, “This wasn’t an easy decision, but based on the feedback we’ve received, and based on our own internal tests, we felt there are adjustments and improvements we can make, including improving the co-op experience across all game modes, weapon and gadget balancing, as well as menu and interface navigation. We’re taking a little more time to make these changes, and we think it’s the right call.

“We understand that many of you are excited to get your hands on the final game, but as gamers ourselves we know that quality comes first and we are committed to delivering the best game possible.”

The release date is interesting since it now puts Rainbow Six Siege in an environment where Halo 5: Guardians and Star Wars Battlefront will already be available. What are your thoughts on the delay? Let us know in the comments.
