Rainbow Six Siege Reveals Attack on Titan Crossover

by

It sounds unbelievable, but Rainbow Six Siege is teaming up with the popular anime Attack on Titan. While a tactical shooter and a dark fantasy anime might seem like an odd pairing, fans have had a very mixed response to the announcement.

Even though the original Attack on Titan manga finished in 2021 and the anime in 2023, the series remains incredibly popular with fans. Attack on Titan built a fascinating world, and despite the story concluding for many beloved characters, it hasn’t disappeared from the cultural spotlight. Frequent collaborations and crossovers have helped keep it relevant, and now Rainbow Six Siege is the latest addition to this trend.

Rainbow Six Siege and Attack on Titan Collide in Collab

Rainbow Six Siege is getting a special collaboration with Attack on Titan just in time for Christmas Eve! Players can purchase two cosmetic bundles: one that outfits the operator Amaru to resemble Mikasa Ackerman, and another that gives Oryx the look of the Armored Titan. A new teaser video showcases the outfits in action, with Amaru using her grappling hook in a way that mimics the Titan-fighting gear from the anime. Oryx makes a dramatic entrance by bursting through a wall, just like the Armored Titan did in the original Attack on Titan series.

Each of the new bundles includes a headgear item, uniform, weapon skin, operator portrait, and a universal weapon charm. Oryx’s bundle features the Titanic Demolisher skin for his T-5 SMG, and Amaru’s includes the Trusted Woodgrain skin for the G8A1. You can buy each bundle separately for 2,160 R6 Credits, or get both together for a reduced price of 4,080 R6 Credits. These bundles are available in the store now, and don’t worry if you’re not ready to purchase them yet – they’ll be available permanently.

Rainbow Six Siege and Attack on Titan Fans React

It’s no surprise this collaboration has sparked a lot of discussion, especially since rumors were circulating beforehand. While some fans of both games are thrilled to see their favorites combined, others have been critical. Some Rainbow Six Siege players miss the game’s original, more realistic tactical shooter feel and worry about losing its unique look with so many crossovers. Others have questioned the specific characters chosen, suggesting different Operators would have been a better match. However, most understand that Amaru and Oryx were likely selected for their skills and equipment, not just how they look.

Complaints that Rainbow Six Siege is losing its visual style and realism are similar to those seen in other gaming communities. Call of Duty, for example, faced criticism for adding many cosmetic items, some of which drastically changed the game’s look – they even included characters like Beavis and Butt-Head. Recent crossovers with games like Magic: The Gathering and Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves (featuring Cristiano Ronaldo) have also drawn complaints. However, crossovers can be a positive thing, as seen in the success of games like Fortnite and Super Smash Bros. Ultimately, it’s impossible to please everyone, and this trend of adding cosmetics and crossovers doesn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon.
