Ubisoft has revealed a brand-new limited-time mode for Rainbow Six Siege. The mode, named Showdown, is out now on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
Showdown is a new 3v3 game type that takes place on a new map designed specifically for the mode. The map, Fort Truth, is a "small size, outdoor map" that has a distinct wild west theme.
The mode only allows the BOSG 12.2 shotgun and the Magnum LFP586 revolver. You can also choose from a smaller selection of Operators than traditional Siege modes: it's three of Maverick, Ash, Twitch, Capitao, and Glaz up against a trio from Alibi, Kaid, Caveira, Maestro, and Rook.
To tie in with the mode, a new selection of Alpha Packs are available, named Showdown Packs. Each one costs 300 R6 credits and will grant you a number of 31 new exclusive customization items.
Showdown is live now and runs until July 16. For more on the Tom Clancy game, check out everything we know about the new Rainbow Six Siege Operators, Nokk and Warden.
