Rainbow Six Siege Goes Free On PS4, Xbox One, And PC This Weekend


If you don’t have a lot of plans this weekend, maybe fire up that console or gaming rig and play Rainbow Six Siege. Ubisoft has confirmed that this title is going to be free to play over the weekend on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Those who haven’t played this title as yet can take advantage of this free weekend and take the title for a spin over the break.

Ubisoft has also confirmed that during this free Rainbox Six Siege weekend, the version that players will be able to access contains all of the maps, modes, and operators available in the full paid version of the game.

Those who are interested in taking advantage of this free weekend can now pre-load the game on PC only. Pre-load isn’t available for players on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Another caveat is that while Xbox owners don’t need Xbox Live Gold to access the title, PS4 owners will need a PlayStation Plus subscription.

As is the case with all free weekends, any progress made throughout the weekend will carry over if the player decides to purchase Rainbow Six Siege once the time is up. Rainbow Six Siege will thus be free to play from May 17th-20th and all versions of the game will be available for 50 percent off with the exception of the Starter Edition.

Facebook Gets Voice Posts, Stories Archive, And More


Facebook today announced that it’s adding three new features to its main app which will help users “create and save memories” more effectively. The new features include Voice Posts, Stories archive, and a slate of new cloud storage features.

Users who shoot photos or videos using the in-app Facebook Camera will be able to access these new cloud storage features. They will be given the option to save the photos and videos directly to their Facebook account. This will help users with entry-level devices that have limited storage to keep space free on their devices.

All of the photos and videos that are saved to Facebook Camera will only be visible to the user after they login to Facebook. They can then decide which of those items they want to publish to their account. Facebook hasn’t said if there’s going to be any limits to this cloud storage option.

Facebook Camera is also getting an Audio option which can be used to share voice messages as Voice Posts. This feature will help users quickly interact with their friends and family in their native language without having to install specific keyboards. They won’t even require written proficiency from users in a language that they can easily speak.

The social network has also said that an archive feature will be rolled out in the coming weeks which will let users save the Facebook Stories they want to preserve. Facebook has said that these new features are rolling out to users in India first before they’re made available to users across the globe.
