When Rainbow Six: Siege was announced during Ubisoft’s E3 media briefing on Monday, the gleeful shrieks of delight from tactical shooter fans around the world were louder than a Raging Bull shot in a megaphone. Rainbow Six has returned and it is taking the series back to its roots.

Andrew Witts was on hand at E3 to chat with us about everything ranging from the differences between this new era of Rainbow Six and the Vegas titles, the new modes to expect, and, well, a little bit of everything. What you’re sure to learn: the cover system may be gone, but the controllable spy drones have arrived in what’s shaping up to be the next big tactical shooter experience.
