A leak about Rainbow Six Quarantine has emerged, sharing new details about the shooter. Images of the structure, weapons, operators, and other content have been shared. However, there are doubts about the authenticity of the images.
What new information is available? In a reddit thread, 4 images of the structure of the new PvE shooter Rainbow Six Quarantine have been shared. From these, one should be able to deduce the gameplay structure:
- It is supposed to be a tactical first-person shooter.
- Focus is on co-op, replayability, and tension.
- 21 already known operators from Rainbow Six Siege are returning.
- There will be at least 52 different weapons.
- There will be three new locations: New York, San Francisco, and “TRC”, presumably Torreón City in Mexico.
- The Rainbow Six Siege cosmetic system is also to be used for this shooter.
What is the truthfulness of this information? It is currently hard to say. The general information matches what was shared in the announcement at E3.
There, it was mentioned that it would be a PvE co-op experience, inspired by the Outbreak event from Rainbow Six Siege. It involved fighting hordes of zombies. The return of already known operators was also confirmed there.
However, there is also resistance on reddit against the leak. In the documents, armor materials are shown, which a fan is said to have designed. Therefore, the details of the leak should be taken with caution.
3 classes, known enemies, and game modes
What else is in the leaks? The leaked images suggest that the 21 operators are divided into 3 playstyles: Assault, Recon, and Support. The attackers and defenders from Rainbow Six Siege apparently work together against the AI.
Among the enemies, there are also known foes that were part of the Outbreak event in Rainbow Six Siege, including: Grunt, Breacher, Rooter, Smasher, and Apex.
For personal character development, there will be a new operator progression system.
In the missions, Rainbow Six Quarantine relies on different game modes, including:
- Sabotage
- Escort
- Disruption
- Hunt
The last image, in turn, shows the scenarios and possible locations where Rainbow Six Quarantine is supposed to take place. As mentioned at the beginning, these are presumably New York City, San Francisco, and Torreón in Mexico.
