Next Rainbow Six Siege update removes 'Tower' map from Ranked play

Rainbow Six Siege's next update is removing the 'Tower' map from its Ranked playlist rotation.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is on track to receive its Operation Para Bellum expansion for June 7, yet Ubisoft is still bringing new changes ahead of its rollout. The game's Ranked multiplayer playlist is now being reworked, by cutting one of the game's most controversial maps.

Mok Myeok Tower, better known simply as "Tower," made its arrival with last year's Operation White Noise. Founded on a blend of modern design and traditional Korean architecture, the map makes for some unique gameplay encounters through its increased verticality. However, there are some major shortcomings with its design criticized by the competitive community. As a result, Tower is being pulled from the Ranked playlist map rotation.

From June 7, after the scheduled release of Operation Para Bellum, Tower will be restricted to the Casual playlist and custom games. Ubisoft presented the following six reasons for the map's removal, in a post to the game's official site.
