Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is the last chance for gamers to rescue America's sexiest city from an escalating terrorist siege. The highly acclaimed multiplayer mode in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas has been upgraded to include 13 new maps with more intense face-offs, two new adversarial modes, more rewards, and easier access to matches using the improved and intuitive matchmaking system.

Ubisoft say that they'll be deeper customisation and we'll be able to create our own identity that persists through both the single player and multiplayer modes and progresses along with you and reap the benefits of your single player rewards in multiplayer and vice versa.

Co-op mode has been overhauled and we can turn single player mode into co-op mode at any time, just by jumping into the game. Now you and a friend can jump into a single player game and assist without any change to the story. The single player maps and storyline were created with co-op in mind, meaning every map has multiple entry points and the story is unaffected.

Look out for our first hands-on playtest of Rainbow 6 Vegas 2 next week. In the meantime, check out this brand new trailer.

Good trailer, hope the game plays as well as it looks.
It's a shame it's not a new setting, but I liked the first Vegas, so still looking forward to this.

In fact, I get to play it on Monday!
Oh, that headline threw me…

I was expecting to read Bungle scored a hat-trick and Ed Deline was sent off for a professional foul on Zippy late on:surprised:
i never got to play R6 Vegas as my lame PC couldnt run it when i got it for my birthday and when i bought my PS3 it came with COD4, so im looking forward to this one - trailer looks impressive too :D
I'm very much looking forward to this game. I love the R6 series. It's sad to learn that this will be the final installment though.

I gave away a stack of unopened Xbox 360 games to friends and family last Christmas as I couldn't wean myself off Vegas to play them during 2007! For Vegas 2 to apparently improve on Vegas is a mighty feat indeed.
