Ubisoft dropped their official reveal of Tom Clancy’ Rainbow Six Tactics today during Gamescom Opening Night Live 2026. Rainbow Six Tactics is a single-player tactical game that takes the acclaimed shooter series in a new direction, swapping run-and-gun gunplay for tactical turn-based gameplay.
Operators can be seen fighting through destructible environments and coordinating attacks with team members in the reveal trailer. While the gameplay certainly feels reminiscent of tactical strategy games like XCOM, Rainbow Six Tactics retains the series IP and focus on unique operators.
Rainbow Six Tactics is anticipated to release in 2027, following the release of Rainbow Six Extraction in 2022. It will serve as the first console Rainbow Six game since.
Rainbow Six Tactics Gameplay Summary
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Tactics will put players in control of an entire squad of operators as they take on high-risk tactical missions. Instead of jumping into the thick of combat, players will need to use precise tactical positioning and manoeuvres to take down enemies.
Key features include:
- Command a squad of specialised Rainbow Six operators
- Fight through destructible environments
- Plan your team’s attacks and make every move count
- Outthink your enemies with smart tactical positioning
- Level up your Operators and upgrade your HQ between missions
- Unlock powerful new skills and equipment as you learn more about a global conspiracy
Players will need to think ahead and plan every encounter, as the wrong move could spell disaster for the squad. Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Tactics releases on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
Ubisoft opened Gamescom tonight with a first look at Rainbow Six Tactics gameplay. In the exciting gameplay reveal, players are shown how tactics play a role in combat as you take control of Rainbow Six operator Tzano.
