Ubisoft today announced that The Curse of Drake, the fan-favorite limited-time horror event of Rainbow Six: Siege, will return from October 13th to November 2nd. The Curse of Doctor Dak: The Return of the Night of Cursed brings the beloved Hide and Seek game mode back to the spooky “Doktor’s Castle” map as Doctor Dak’s terrifying monsters roam the map.
Rainbow Six: Siege
In this version of the 5v5 “Hide and Seek” game mode, new monsters join the event, including Oryx from the hunter’s side (attacker) and Azami, Nomad, Thorn and Gridlock from the monster’s side (defender). Monsters must hide from the hunters and survive in the dark night. Hunters are limited to the Breach Hammer weapon and a Tracking Gear, each linked to a unique Operator skin. The hunter’s goal is to find monsters and make them disappear from the castle. Defending monsters, on the other hand, have no weapons, but can use traps and a unique ability created for this mode: “Ghost Walk”, which allows them to briefly become invisible and run at an accelerated pace to hide and escape.
The Drake’s Curse Collection also returns to the game, bringing bundles of Smoke, Kapkan, Frost, Lesion, Doc, Bandit, Sledge, Lion, Jackal, Aruni and Ela, and adds new monsters Oryx, Bundle of Azami, Nomad, Spina and Grill. Additionally, the Pulse Chiropractor Pack, Kaid’s Bloodthirsty Pack and Melusi’s Thrilling Pack will be added, as well as three themed packs: the Evil Surgery Pack, the Stealth Pack, and the Flesh and Flesh Pack. Each pack is sold for 300 R6 points or 12500 reputation. Anyone who logs into the game between October 13 and November 2 will receive a free “Dark Doctor’s Curse” collection pack and three more collections by completing the weekly Ubisoft Connect challenges. Finally, if players have purchased any of the full packs from previous “Dark Doctor’s Curse” events, the corresponding Operator Cards will be available for free.
