Ubisoft has nabbed a few domains that point to a new Rainbow Six game and it looks like we'll be hearing an official announcement soon. Dubbed Rainbow Six: Patriots, the latest installment in this shooter franchise is rumored to be set in New York City where an American terrorist group is fed up with corporate greed and attacks Wall Street. Considering the game has been in development for years, the timing is ominous with the ongoing Occupy Wall Street campaign. We're sure the mainstream media is going to have a field day with this one.
The domains that Ubisoft has registered are Rainbow6Patriots.com and RainbowsixPatriots.com. A NeoGAF member seems to confirm the rumors:
“As the title says and the game being already rumoured by Fusible.com I can confirm it now that the next Rainbow Six will be announce on Xbox World Magazine in the upcoming month (if I understood correctly from my contact). Last night I got home with the assets; logos, arts, the covers and rendered game screens from a buddy that I know in marketing. I will not going to show anything for the moment as I will let the mag do his work, but what I can tell is that the logo is 6 with the pistol that replace the bottom circle. The arts backgrounds are with the New York in fire and the renders characters are very similiar to Homefront, yet the clothes are still based with police rainbow six gears. What I understood the plot will go between a large group of revolutionary terrorists and of course the police."
