Netflix keeps adding more fun for mobile gamers with the recent soft launch of Sonic Mania Plus. And this time, they’ve brought something really special. Their latest game, Rainbow Six SMOL, takes the excitement of the famous Rainbow Six series and packs it into a playful, mobile experience. This game is available for Netflix members to enjoy on their iOS and Android devices.
Rainbow Six SMOL turns the action-packed world of tactical shooters into a lighthearted adventure. Players get to lead a team of Operators on various missions, from saving hostages to defeating bad guys, all in a cute, miniaturized version of the Rainbow Six universe. Let’s dive into a quick look at the game, showcasing its mix of fun characters and environments that you can completely tear apart.
What is Rainbow Six SMOL?
Rainbow Six SMOL reimagines the intense tactical gameplay of the Rainbow Six universe in a miniature, yet expansive world. Players step into the shoes of a new Rainbow recruit, tasked with leading a squad of Operators through various missions—ranging from bomb defusal to hostage rescue and taking down nefarious enemies. The game stands out with its light-hearted take on the franchise, featuring a cast of tiny yet mighty Operators, each equipped with distinct weapons, passive bonuses, and special abilities.
Ubisoft Entertainment has meticulously crafted a universe where strategy and squad composition are key. Players have to choose their Operators wisely, tailoring their team’s abilities to the mission at hand and their personal playstyle.
Gameplay and Features
The gameplay of Rainbow Six SMOL is as diverse as it is dynamic. With five distinct game modes and ten enemy factions, including dragons, demons, and armed humans, players are in for a thrilling challenge. The game encourages strategic thinking, as players must consider the mission’s objective, enemy types, and their personal approach to combat.
So, whether preferring stealth tactics with Valkyrie’s recon abilities or a more direct approach with Sledge’s hammer, the game accommodates all styles. Notably, the entire game world is destructible, echoing the destructibility of Rainbow Six Siege but amplified, ensuring that no two missions feel the same.
Players are rewarded with XP and in-game credits after each successful mission, which can be used to unlock new weapons and upgrades. However, the stakes are high, as failure results in the permanent death of the player’s recruit, requiring them to start anew. This roguelite element adds a layer of tension and strategy to each mission, pushing players to plan carefully and play skillfully.
However, the game is available exclusively to Netflix members, and you will need an active subscription to play this game.
