Rainbow Six Mobile Controller Support Finally Explained for Players

Ubisoft Montreal has finally brought its flagship 5v5 shooter to handheld devices, enabling the mobile community to experience what it takes to play tactically. Ubisoft has enabled Rainbow Six Mobile Controller Support right from the start.

Hence, a plethora of players are interested in knowing how to set up their devices to enjoy the tactical shooter on handheld devices. Well, our Rainbow Six Mobile Controller Support guide will provide them with all the information we have right now.

Ubisoft Has Enabled Controller Support On Its Tactical Shooter

In short, RB6 Mobile Controller Support is available now, and mobile gamers can use their preferred controllers to shoot heads, destroy soft walls, and breach some walls in the 5v5 tactical shooter. The company even added a settings option that lets you set your sensitivity.

Do remember that the controller can not be utilised during the game's main menu screen. It'll only be available during a match. Therefore, players rely on the touchscreen to navigate through the menu. Meanwhile, if you're new to this genre, check out our Rainbow Six Mobile guide to get settled into the experience.
