Curious about Rainbow Six Siege but not sure if you want to buy it? A free version of the team-based shooter is available from today on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
As announced previously, it comes with all the maps, modes, and characters in the full version. Additionally, the game is marked down 50 percent right now, meaning you can pick it up for $25 instead of $50 once the free weekend ends.

In other Rainbow Six Siege news, the game’s next free expansion, Operation Velvet Shell, comes out on February 7. It includes a new map, Coastline, as well as two new characters: Jackal and Mira.
According to Ubisoft, Rainbow Six Siege is “going stronger than ever” more than a year after it came out. The publisher claims the game has a “continually growing player base.”
