Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 is a tactical first-person shooter that serves as both a prequel and a sequel to the original Vegas. Players lead an elite team of counter-terrorism operatives through missions in Las Vegas, focusing on stopping a new terrorist threat. The game features enhanced AI, a customizable character progression system, and the popular cover mechanic from the first game. Multiplayer includes both cooperative and competitive modes, allowing for a variety of tactical gameplay experiences. It was praised for refining the formula of the original, though some considered it more of an expansion than a full sequel.
