Yakuza’s Kiryu in R6 Siege Crossover Game with Rick Sanchez
Ubisoft revealed the next Rainbow Six Siege crossover, which, if you didn’t see it, is quite surprising. Rainbow Six Siege has new bundles available for Operators Echo, Hibana, and Hibana. They can dress up as Yakuza‘s Kazuma Kiyu and Kaoru Takayama starting May 24. Kiryu has never killed anyone, especially in Rainbow Six Siege.
You can grab Hibana’s Kaoru outfit while Echo gets Kiryu before you engage in a shootout against someone dressed up as Rick and Morty weirdos. Ubisoft’s two bundles come with exclusive gun skins. Echo was also teased at the Yakuza Siege crossover trailer that another Elite Skin had been added to the bundle. Given the bat and wild cackle, it has to be Goro Majima.
These skin packs typically cost between 1,800-2,160 R6 credit, so you will likely spend at least $19.99 to appear like Kiryu. Ubisoft has not yet confirmed the pricing of the new bundles. However, the Resident Evil or Rick and Morty collaboration bundles provide some indications.
Is this a canonical way to place Majima, Kiryu, and Kaoru in the same universe as Rick & Morty? It’s a horrible idea. I will say that it is. Although I have only played R Rainbow Six Siege a few times, I would love to see Kiryu defeat Pickle Rick if it was still on the scene.
Although I swear that I am not a stick in the mud, I do enjoy many crossovers, and the Fortnite costume competition thing is exhausting. The Evangelion and PUBG collaboration have both delighted and horrified me. Although Ubisoft’s Yakuza take isn’t too bizarre, I still find them strangely out of place.
