Ubi Confirms 360 Rainbow Six: Vegas - Player's Pack Red Edition News

Rainbow Six fans churning for more counter-terrorist action are in luck, as Ubisoft today confirmed details on the forthcoming release of the 'Player's Pack Red Edition'.

A downloadable package created exclusively for the Xbox 360 (we suspect PS3 owners will get their own package later in the year, Blue Edition perhaps), the content will be made available on the Xbox Live Marketplace towards the end of March and includes five multiplayer maps and two new game modes.

New MP Adversarial Maps:

• Doscala Restaurant - This well known Italian restaurant is located in the heart Las Vegas, near the famous Fremont Street.
• Marshalling Yard - This century-old service yard is situated in the center of an industrial district. Still active today, it is primarily used to store cars, but is also equipped with cleaning and maintenance facilities.
• Roof - A Coffee Factory has been overrun in the continuing gang violence that is wreaking havoc in this border town. The strategic positioning of the factory makes it highly desirable to control, making it a focal point of the violence.

Revisited; Relit MP Adversarial Maps:

• Border Town - Redux
• Killhouse - Redux

Two New Modes: Two all new game modes that can be played in the 10 original maps and the five new maps.

• Assassination mode - The goal of the Attackers is to eliminate a high-value asset of the Defenders, who in turn will try to defend and escort the VIP to his extraction Zone.
• Total Conquest - This is a team-oriented, static control-point game mode where each map contains three "Mobile Radar Installations" (control points). To win, a team must activate and maintain control of at least one of the three Mobile Radar Installations locations for a given period of time.
