The Tom Clancy's line is being consolidated under the Massive Entertainment name, which covers The Division, Ghost Recon, and Splinter Cell. A new Rainbow Six turn-based game, Rainbow Six Tactics, is set for 2027, while Ubisoft has confirmed but not fixed CPU-related issues in Ghost Recon: Wildlands.
Ubisoft's handling of the Tom Clancy's catalog has moved in two directions at once. On the publishing side, the company gathered multiple studios, among them Malmo, Paris, Montreal, and Toronto, under the Massive Entertainment name on October 1, 2026. The Tom Clancy's line, including The Division, Ghost Recon, and Splinter Cell, will be developed under that shared brand. Publishing and distribution stays with Ubisoft, and the company says the integration is meant to smooth sharing of the Snowdrop Engine and reduce duplication of production lines. Christoph Hartmann, named General Manager of Massive Entertainment in early July, tied the move to bringing teams in Montreal, Paris, Sweden, and Toronto together.
On the software side, the newest entry is Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Tactics, announced during the gamescom Opening Night Live 2026 broadcast on August 26. It is a fully single-player turn-based tactical simulation, set for 2027 on PC via Ubisoft Connect, Steam, and Epic Games Store, plus PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. The campaign uses 15 operators from Rainbow Six Siege in four-person squads, and the story follows Paul Bishop, the protagonist of Rainbow Six Vegas 2, as he becomes the Rainbow commander called Six.
Older Ghost Recon titles remain in the picture. Ubisoft gave away the PC version of Ghost Recon Future Soldier on Ubisoft Connect from August 7 to August 13 as part of the series' 25th anniversary campaign, alongside series-wide discounts. Separately, the company confirmed CPU-related performance issues in Ghost Recon: Wildlands on 12th-generation Intel CPUs and later, said it is investigating, and did not confirm a fix; the problem has been known since around 2025 and persists after the August 7 update.

Ubisoft announced on October 1, 2026 that its development division provisionally called Creative House 2 has taken the official name Massive Entertainment, with a new logo revealed the same day. The division now gathers multiple Ubisoft studios, among them Malmo, Paris, Montreal, and Toronto, under one brand. The Tom Clancy's line, including The Division, Ghost Recon, and Splinter Cell, plus a portfolio centered on action shooters, will be developed under the shared Massive Entertainment name. Ubisoft states the integration is meant to smooth sharing of the Snowdrop Engine and development know-how while avoiding duplication of production lines. Christoph Hartmann, named General Manager of Massive Entertainment in early July, said the teams gain the chance to bring creative energy and expertise spread across Montreal, Paris, Sweden, and Toronto together. Publishing and distribution of all games developed under the brand stays with Ubisoft, and existing commitments to players and partners are unchanged.

Ubisoft announced Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Tactics during the gamescom Opening Night Live 2026 broadcast on August 26. The game is a fully single-player turn-based tactical simulation, a departure from the series' usual first-person shooter format. It is scheduled for release in 2027 on PC via Ubisoft Connect, Steam, and Epic Games Store, as well as PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Players command the Rainbow elite special forces unit from a commander's perspective, working to rebuild the organization after it has been devastated. The campaign features 15 operators from Rainbow Six Siege, with players building a four-person squad. Gameplay alternates between a strategy phase for base management and operator upgrades, and a tactics phase for missions. Missions include hostage rescue, bomb defusal, and elimination of VIP targets, beginning with drone reconnaissance and a breach planning phase. Stages are handcrafted with over 50 designs, and terrain destruction plays a central role in combat. The story follows Paul Bishop, protagonist of Rainbow Six Vegas 2, as he becomes the Rainbow commander known as Six.
