The open beta was set to feature the Kanal, Hereford, and House maps, as well as three game modes. Two of these, Bomb and Secure Area, are PvP modes while the third, Disarm Bomb, is a PvE mode in which 1-5 players work to take on a terrorist cell.
Rainbow Six: Siege is set to release next Tuesday, December 1st on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The game was due to release in October before being pushed back due to fan feedback.
