Guess we don't have to wait for GameSpy (story), as Ubisoft today announced development of Rainbow Six 4. The game, in development at Red Storm Entertainment and Ubisoft's Montreal Studios, is scheduled for a spring 2005 release on PC, Xbox and PS2.

The next Rainbow Six installment will build on the ingredients that have made the Rainbow Six franchise a runaway success, and will introduce new single player experience with a personal darker storyline, state-of-the-art equipment, and offer gamers the chance to play as two members of Team Rainbow: Ding Chavez, the fearless leader of Team Rainbow, and a new sniper role portrayed by Dieter Weber, who must cover his team's movement with deadly accuracy.
