About Rainbow Six
Rainbow Six is based on a Tom Clancy novel and its Siege instalment, released in 2015 to a poor reception, was rebuilt over years into one of the most durable competitive shooters through continuous updates. Ubisoft acquired the studio and the Tom Clancy licence in 2000, and it now holds the rights to use the author's name on games in perpetuity.
