Ubisoft have today revealed a new bundling agreement with peripheral manufacturer Thrustmaster that will see the Live version of Rainbow Six 3 go on-sale including a rather lovely headset inspired by that worn by the game's lead character.

The new headset will enable all manner of voice commands both on and off - line.

"After successfully experiencing the Xbox peripheral third party license, Thrustmaster is happy to support the exiting innovative gameplay offered by Ubisoft's Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six(r) 3 on Xbox. For the first time ever on Xbox, gamers will experience voice command which will immerse them in the team-based universe of their favourite tactical video game. We thus collaborated closely with Ubisoft's team in Montreal as well as with Xbox team to secure the best quality Headset in the spirit of the one that the game characters wear", commented Gilles Raulet, Business Development Director at Thrustmaster. "The Headset neckband shape will allow long comfortable hours playing offline or so let's 'Open, Frag and Clear'!"

The Xbox version of Rainbow Six 3 is due out on the 14th of November.
