Ubisoft is set to become the latest major publisher to leave a single-player campaign out of its next big first-person shooter. Rainbow Six: Siege, due for release in December, will not include a single-player story mode, according to an interview with art director Scott Mitchell that was recently published on WhatCulture.
"There is no story mode per se," Mitchell said. "You go through training, where you get to experience different operators and their devices. You can play against enemy AI in co-op through all the maps. You can customize matches, so that’s what we’re offering on the single-player side of things."
Games played in these training and co-op battles will still contribute progress toward grinding out unlocks, so playing against the AI won't mean missing out on the game's content. Still, the move is nonetheless likely to disappoint many of the series' fans. To the extent that there is a single-player mode, it seems to exist only to provide training for the multiplayer mode, not to tell a self-contained story.
