Ubisoft has just recently announced the launching of "Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege" open beta, which will kick off on November 25 and roll out until November 29. The studio has also revealed that the said beta will be open to gamers across PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. In addition, a new trailer was released and stars Idris Elba, who finds himself in a dangerous raid to rescue a valuable hostage.

According to Christian Post, the French multinational video game developer and publisher Ubisoft has just announced the release of "Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege" final open beta test. It is expected to be launched on Wednesday, November 25 and should last until Sunday, November 29. The fourth and latest beta will include a new set of characters and new map for players to explore.

IGN noted that the upcoming "Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege" beta is geared towards providing Ubisoft a much clearer notion as to how many players are likely to be playing during the launch day. By doing so, it will help the studio weigh the amount of servers needed to keep in order to handle the player load. Moreover, Ubisoft has confirmed that the final open beta will be served among all players across PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

It is worth noting that "Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege" is large multiplayer game that is focused on both cooperative and competitive gameplay. Reports have it that during the final beta, players will have access to the game's Secure Area and Bomb PVP modes, both of which have never been made available in the previous beta tests.

iDigitalTimes, on the other hand, reported that Ubisoft has just unleashed a new live-action trailer for "Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege" and features actor Idris Elba ("Pacific Rim"). The 43-year-old English actor finds himself in the midst a daring raid, which is executed in hopes to save a valuable hostage. Elba reportedly expressed how unique the game was and that his "character is at the eye of the storm during the chaos around him." He went on to add how his character "walks the viewer through the destruction, while coming out unscathed on the other end."

All of these will surely hype every "Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege" fan; however, they have to wait until December 1 - the official release date of the game. In the meantime, they may want to see Idris Elba in the newly-released trailer.
