Rainbow Six Quarantine is a co-op focused take on FPS games inspired by Rainbow Six Siege's Outbreak mode. It was announced and named well before the world entered into a global pandemic where we all got asked to actually quarantine, and while Ubisoft is no stranger to making questionable use of real-world fears for its game settings, it does look likely that the game's name will change. Specifically, to 'Rainbow Six Parasite'.
A number of key art images with the Rainbow Six Parasite logo have shown up buried on the PlayStation Network, as the folks at MP1st have discovered. The image shows Ela (previously confirmed as part of the game's cast) stuck in some black goop. 'Parasite' certainly dodges the COVID-19 connotations, so here's hoping that there's no sudden global disasters in the near future that'll render the thought of parasites uncomfortable, too.
Ubisoft revealed in its most recent financial earnings report that it was "evaluating" a name change for Rainbow Six Quarantine. We've reached out to the company for further details, and will update when we learn more.
