R6 Patriots removed from Gamestop's pre-order database. Bad news?

I'm a big R6 fan, but I'm starting to not care at this point. Honestly keep forgetting that it is/was on the horizon. I hope whoever gets their act together on it at some point.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6: Patriots has been formally removed from GameStop's database, and is no longer available for pre-order. Some retailers automatically deactivate database entries after a lengthy period of time, which wouldn't mean much in this instance. GameStop, according to a source with intimate knowledge of the retailer, "actively flipped a switch" to eliminate Rainbow 6 Patriots from its system.
GameStop tends not to remove big-name games from major publishers without an official confirmation that a title is dead, a source said. Moreover, it's exceedingly rare for GameStop to delist a game that appeared on the cover of its Game Informer magazine.
Amazon, Game, and other retailers, meanwhile, retain a listing for Rainbow 6. While the removal from GameStop isn't indicative of a cancellation or delay, it brings up the question once more: What is going on with this game?
Rainbow 6: Patriots was announced in 2011, but Ubisoft has spoken about the tactical shooter very little since then. Ubisoft told IGN last year that it's still in active development, and recent signs point to a next generation Rainbow 6 on new hardware.
Ubisoft's response to IGN concerning this delisting was, "We have nothing further to share about Rainbow 6: Patriots at this time."

After they rewrote the story because of concerns over domestic terrorism, this game was pretty much dead. Not many games make it out of development limbo.

Well, I know the franchise isn't going way. Sucks that we have to wait even longer for a game. I just hope they don't go back to Vegas.

I agree, but we might not ever see this game. Series could go back to FPS

I don't believe either of the Vegas games featured domestic terrorism.
Posted on 5/16/13 at 6:49 pm to sbr2
They've all featured some form of terrorism in one way or another. Breaking in to a home and forcing a husband/father to become a suicide bomber was probably way over the top for some.

Slower and a larger sized gif.

Yeah, but not domestic terrorism. The trailer for Patriots fixated on destroying corporate America via homegrown milita, which was bad timing concerning the 99% protests at the same time.

Remain calm, it's coming later this year likely under a new name and it's next gen.
Development (MP) wrapped up in April by Ubisoft Toronto.
