Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 is a first person shooter video game and the sequel to Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Vegas. It was announced by Ubisoft on November 20, 2007. The game was released for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on March 18, 2008 in North America and March 20, 2008 in Europe, except in Germany, where the game has been delayed. The Microsoft Windows version, however, has been delayed until April 15, 2008.
A world-exclusive first-look of the game appeared in the January edition of the Official Xbox Magazine. One of the biggest announcements is that Logan Keller, the lead character from the previous game, has been removed in favor of having the player create his own character to play through the campaign. The player instead assumes the role of “Bishop”, a member of the Rainbow squad with a great deal more experience and who is more deeply involved in the story. The game, billed as “part sequel, part prequel”, has events that run both before and concurrently to the story of Logan Keller and continue after where the first game concluded.
The story for Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 takes place before, during and after the events of the first game. In addition to the ability to customize a character in multiplayer, the player can now customize Bishop, Vegas 2’s new protagonist. In single-player, the developers claim to have vastly improved teammate AI, so that now teammates cover each other as they advance. There are also several new commands, for example, the ability of a teammate to throw a grenade at a specific point.(Wikipedia)
