And that's good news, for this is the latest in the genre of so-called soldier sims, where you lead a group of troops into various circumstances to save the day. It's a good one, at that. Despite initial appearances, covert operations are very much at the top of the agenda here, as the missions involve sneaking around, quietly taking out bad guys without disturbing the others, and rescuing hostages intact. As with the previous Rainbow Six releases, the basic rule that one bullet can end your mission stands here too--you really will get no benefit from charging in all guns blazing, and that makes things satisfyingly challenging. The ultimate effect is to make the game incredibly tense, and really quite difficult, especially for those new to the genre. The controls take a while to grasp, although once you're in the swing of ordering fellow troops whilst keeping yourself alive, you can't help but be gripped. There's plenty to do and, frankly, you need to do the lot if you're going to succeed: very often, a mission will be made or broken in the planning stages, even before your soldiers have set foot in hostile territory. In truth, this pack doesn't add an enormous amount to the original game, but the very fact that it does offer more of the same is sure to satiate the franchise's growing genre of fans. And with sky-high production values and gripping gameplay still top of the agenda, we can only hope for plenty more in the series in years to come. --Simon Brew -- .co.uk See more
