≠ Where it differs: brings strong narrative focus and online features, while skipping setting scifi

Wall-running and thrust jumps make it the most mobile campaign in the series, and the four-player co-op campaign is a genuine structural change. Zombies is at its most elaborate here. The story is close to incomprehensible, the campaign is the weakest part of the package, and the PC version's supply-drop economy drew heavy criticism.

≠ Stands apart with stealth mechanics, offline and online features, while skipping dark, oppressive atmosphere

The peak of the cover-based Rainbow Six era: squad orders are quick to issue, the rappel-through-window breach is still satisfying, and Terrorist Hunt is the mode that kept it alive for years. The story is throwaway and reuses locations from the first game, and the tactical depth is far shallower than the pre-Vegas entries.

✓ Both are tactical first-person shooters — sharing shooter, first-person shooting and ranged combat

≠ Where it differs: brings deep simulation, online features and early access, while skipping dark, oppressive atmosphere

A tactical shooter aiming for pre-Vegas Rainbow Six: lethal, slow, no regenerating health. That intent is clear and the appeal is real for the audience it targets. The execution is not — it released visibly unfinished, with broken AI, minimal mission variety and no save system, and it was widely criticised on those grounds.

On reception: its Steam reviews are mixed, against mostly positive for Blacklight: Retribution.

The gang is back, and they have bigger and better plans. Objective based cooperative FPS became more complicated. The classic group of Hoxton, Dallas, Chains and Wolf got reinforcement, and now Payday Gang consists of 21 heisters, some of which are based on movie characters or even Youtubers.

The Makarov campaign's conclusion, plus a full multiplayer suite of remastered classic maps and an open-world extraction Zombies mode. The multiplayer is the part that is genuinely well regarded. The campaign is short and widely considered the weakest in the reboot trilogy, and cheating in the online modes is the complaint that dominates recent reviews rather than anything about the design.
