Earlier this month Ubisoft faced substantial backlash after announcing some art changes headed to its hit tactical shooter, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege to create a unified, global version ahead of the game' expansion into Asian territories planned for the near future, especially Chinese censorship, which always has strict regulations on games. However, now, Ubisoft has confirmed it is reverting the changes in the wake of a wave of negative backlash. Ubisoft has now detailed plans to revert these aesthetic changes in an update on the Siege blog that the dev team will work to undo them in the next major seasonal update to Rainbow Six Siege, which is due soon, as you can see below:

 
“We will begin reverting these changes alongside the launch of Wind Bastion so no player is impacted; we ask you to be patient if some elements remain. We will carefully remove them all to the best of our ability considering the short timeframe and with the lowest impact on the season's launch date and our build stability.
 
We have been following the conversation with our community closely over the past couple of weeks, alongside regular discussions with our internal Ubisoft team, and we want to ensure that the experience for all our players, especially those that have been with us from the beginning, remains as true to the original artistic intent as possible.”
 
From the statement, we can see that the upcoming Operation Wind Bastion update won't feature censored assets. To calm and appease fans, Ubisoft is trying to revert all those aesthetic changes with the public release of the Wind Bastion update,and minimize the impact of the controversy on the upcoming Operation Wind Bastion. Besides, the developer also asked fans for their patience, as some art elements may not be reverted right away, considering the short timeframe and with the lowest impact on the season's launch date and their build stability.
 
The impact of the art style revert in Siege would be minimal Ubisoft promised, though it acknowledged it could "lead to a season delay and/or some instability as our testing and debug times are shortened."
 
As for why Ubisoft finally changed his decision, the game developer said it was watching the conversation online, and as a result it wanted to ensure the experience "remains as true to the original artistic intent as possible."
 
For now, Rainbow Six Siege should retain original art assets worldwide, likely branching off a censored client for select regions at a later date. Although region-specific builds could cause later issues with patches, the move highlights continued attention to the existing player base.

In the meantime, the review in Rainbow Six Siege community is taking a turn for the better. After the statement, the Siege community bombed again. The game's most recent review scores as "mixed," though the aggregate of all the reviews in total remains "mostly positive."
 
Recently, Ubisoft announce further details of the next expansion, Operation Wind Bastion, featuring two new operators and a new map. At the moment, gamers can already try Operation Wind Bastion's new map and Operators on the PC version's test servers.
