Ubisoft backtracks on removing Rainbow Six Siege's blood, sex, and gambling references
Earlier this month month, Ubisoft posted a detailed blog explaining that it would be making a number of aesthetic changes to Rainbow Six Siege in its next update, removing blood, sex, and gambling references in preparation for its move into "Asian territories". The publisher has now announced that it will be reverting those changes in response to community feedback.
Ubisoft's aesthetic alterations were originally due to be part of Rainbow Six Siege's imminent Year Three, Season Four update, otherwise known as Operation Wind Bastion, and were supposedly being made in order to "ensure compliance" with local regulations. These were planned to be included in a single "global" build of the game, implemented in all territories.
Somewhat confusingly, however, a Ubisoft spokesman later claimed that "there will be some things that are split build-wise" for western and Asian markets, leading many to wonder why the changes were being applied to western territories in the first place.
