Today Major League Gaming announced a partnership with Ubisoft on the development of the upcoming shooter, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2. The new Rainbow Six title features an "MLG Map" that pays homage to the MLG Pro Circuit, depicting an MLG event at the Las Vegas Convention Center. MLG and Ubisoft collaborated on the development of the map, which was designed with competitive gaming in mind.
MLG has also announced that it will support the overall effort by including Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 in its 2008 Pro Circuit, including a special release event for the game in April. The multi-city MLG Pro Circuit, which will be covered by ESPN.com, kicks off April 11, 2008 at the Meadowlands Expo Center outside of New York City.
