Black Arrow on the horizon

Black Arrow Squad (small)

Wondering how Xbox Live reached that million memeber mark in record time? Well, a lot of credit is due to Ubisoft and the success of its online shooter, Rainbow Six 3. So it may come as little surprise that the studio wasted little time to bring us Rainbow Six 3: Black Arrow due out August 3. But don't be fooled, this is no measly expansion pack. Black Arrow is a true sequel with an all new offline campaign and the much talked about Lone Rush mode. Of course the heart and soul of the game is online and fans can expect all the same features that made RS3 a classic, and of course some new goodies. Not only will this be the first game to take full advantage of Live 3.0 (that means clans!... er, "squads"), Ubisoft promises 10 news maps (plus 4 RS3 favorites) and two new game modes: Total Conquest & Retrieval.
