The popular Rengoku event has returned to Rainbow Six Siege. Live now, and running until August 13, the limited-timed game mode–where two teams of five battle to capture an alter–offers players new game mechanics, specialized weapons, and unlockable cosmetics. That includes the first Masterpiece animated skin made available via the Rengoku event Memento.
Like before, the Rengoku event tasks players with controlling a particular area of a map using shotguns and powerful kunai. These special throwable items can poison enemies, create barriers, start fires and more. A few new variants, like a freeze kunai, have also been included this time around. Players will need to plan their moves accordingly if they hope to be successful…or not, as part of the fun comes from the chaotic nature of a given match.
No Rainbow Six Siege event is complete without some form of microtransaction. That same goes for this limited-timed mode. There are a few free items that can be unlocked by logging in during the event or rewarded via Twitch Drops. New event-based bundles for select operatives can also be purchased in the shop. And there’s a signature event bundle (that features a universal weapon skin) as well as a Masterpiece animated G36C skin for Ash and Lana, which comes as a reward for unlocking all of the Rengoku Collection items. Recent events and updates, including the Siege X release, have seen huge bumps in player count for the decade-old game. With the Rengoku event proving popular in the past, Ubisoft may expect a similar trend in player count throughout the coming weeks.
