Rainbow Six: Siege won’t have “a story mode per se,” an Ubisoft developer said at an EGX 2015 panel.
Scott Mitchell, the game’s art director, said that players will have a training session “where you get to experience different operators and their devices,” and that players may face off against enemy AI fighters in co-op through all the maps.
“You can customize matches, so that’s what we’re offering on the single-player side of things,” he said.
There will be maps maps against AI opponents, so there is single player capability but as far as a traditional single player campaign goes, forget about it.
The abandonment of a singleplayer campaign signals a growing trend in big-name console shooters. Star Wars: Battlefront will have no singleplayer campaign. Evolvehad no campaign. Titanfall had no campaign, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 will have no campaign on its PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions.
Rainbow Six: Siege is due for a Dec. 1 launch on PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One. Its multiplayer beta kicked off three days ago.
