Covert Ops Essentials Goes Gold

Red Storm has announced that Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Covert Operations Essentials has gone gold and will be available in retail stores next week. This latest game in the Rainbow Six series is a stand-alone mission pack that includes new levels as well as historical information about counterterrorism from 1970 to the present. The informative component of the game contains video interviews with experts, as well as photos, video footage, and complete descriptions of weapons and equipment. After players have closely studied the counterterrorism course, the game has an "officer candidate school" where they can test their skills and knowledge.
