Rainbow Six Siege isn’t getting a Battle Royale mode because not every game needs to be Battle Royale.
“No, I am not interested at all in a battle royale,” Rainbow Six Siege Creative Director Xavier Marquis told Dualshockers. “The genre is doing a nice job but it’s not Siege. The equation of Siege comes from reality, like real CQB operations; it’s always a group trained to defend a specific place and an intervening group trained to intimidate and defeat the threat. This is the equation of Siege. I think the battle royale genre is too much of a stretch and I’m not sure it will be a plus for the game. So, we’ll try different things but no.”
Amy has been announced for Soulcalibur VI
