Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege Halloween Event Called Sugar Fright Now Live
/ Carlos HernandezThe latest event for Rainbow Six: Siege is Halloween themed as from October 27 to November 10 the Sugar Fright event will be available to earn a few goodies and unique cosmetics for select Operators.
The Sugar Fright event comes with 30 unique items and exclusive skins for Zofia, Capitao, IQ, Nomad, Thermite, Castle, Ela, Frost, Goyo, and Pulse. These skins transforms these operators to puppets just like the ones you see in the trailer above.
There’s a special game mode for the event played in a colorful map with all operators mentioned using their puppet skin, and it plays similar to Call of Duty’s Kill Confirmed game mode. Each Operator in this mode plays and is equipped with the same gadgets and loadout with both teams racing to see who can collect 50 candies first from the bodies of their enemies. If you die, you respawn right away.
Players can earn these new items through Sugar Fright packs through a special Event Challenge, or simply purchase packs for R6 credits (real money) or for 12,500 Renown each.
It’s not everyday you see Ubisoft inject some fun and bit of crazy to their hit competitive shooter. The last time they did an event just to spice things up and have fun is when they launched the Mute Protocol event, where it leaned hard on the sci-fi side.
Writer’s take: I hope the tone of their events continue to remain off and weird and to just have fun with it. The game itself is greatly competitive, serious, with a steep learning curve to boot, so it’s great to see then inject a bit of fun every once in awhile.
