I had a chance to get my hands on a pair of new modes that have just been announced will be part of Rainbow Six Siege’s lineup.

The first mode is a single-player training mode code Situations. This mode allows players basically to play Terrohunt by themselves against a varying number of enemies. There are a multitude of game scenarios to cover, though, and so each one makes you play as a different operator. This means before you jump online you can have had some practice with the game’s 20 operators to find out who best fits your play style, as well as learn the game’s maps. Check out my time as Glaz and Kapkan in the video below.

For those who are looking forward to the possible eSports imprint Siege will have, the second new mode announced, Spectator, is perfect for up and coming shoutcasters. Spectator mode allows you to get an overview of an entire map to see where all 10 players are at once. You can also zoom in and switch between floors, or jump into the first-person perspective of any player on the fly to see the action. Check out the video below for the demo we were given of Spectator mode.

And finally, because it wouldn’t be a proper Rainbow Six Siege preview without showing off a bit more of the online modes, here are a couple of rounds of the 5v5 PvP that we snuck in between Situations.

Rainbow Six Siege will be available on Xbox One, PS4, and PC on December 1.
