Histori

Tom Clancy and Doug Littlejohns founded Red Storm Entertainment in 1996. The company is openly launched towards the end of the year. Originally part of Virtus Corporation, the maker of 3D animation tools, the company released its first game - , the first in the Power Plays series - in 1997. Based in Research area The North Carolina Triangle, Red Storm quickly gained reputation with games like Dominant Species , one of the first realtime 3D strategy games. However, it was with Rainbow Six (1998) that the company firmly established itself commercially. In contrast to the pre-set run-and-gun first person shooters (FPS), Rainbow Six is the first true tactical FPS, a game that appreciates patience and good planning and goals and keen eyes. Developed alongside a novel of the same name, Rainbow Six introduced terms such as "one shot, one kill" and "tango down" into the gamers' lexicon. His multi-player action, including a new form of cooperative play, sets the standard for tactical multiplayer.

Red Storm followed the success of Rainbow Six with a mission pack, , and then in 2000 with the sequel, Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear . The company also expanded turn-based strategies ( ruthless.com and Shadow Watch ) and military RTS ( Force 21 ). In August 2000, Ubisoft bought the studio. At the time of sale, Red Storm has produced Ghost Recon .

Released in 2001, Ghost Recon won several "Game of the Year" awards. The Xbox version also marks the first time RSE has ventured into the development of the internal console, and is the first Xbox Live title to really take advantage of multiplayer console possibilities. Follow-up add-ons like Guntur Island continue to expand the world of Ghosts, while the Red Storm itself grows and moves the office to a new location in Morrisville, North Carolina. In 2003, Ubisoft is ready to consolidate North Carolina operations. Another Ubisoft area studio, Sinister Games in downtown Raleigh, is integrated into Red Storm, with the main operating base remaining at the Morrisville location.

In 2004, Red Storm released Ghost Recon 2 , a follow-up to the original game, designed by Lead Designer Christian Allen. Sent on the Xbox, it denotes the company's transition to primarily development consoles. This resulted in an add-on, Summit Strike , in 2005, which moved the move to Kazakhstan, as well as downloadable content, something that would characterize the franchise. Red Storm has also developed a multiplayer aspect of the two iterations of the Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter series. It won the BAFTA's Game of the Year award and the Best Technical Achievement award in 2006.

Recently, Red Storm continued development on Tom Clancy games such as Ghost Recon: Future Soldier (2012) and The Division (2016), while working with Ubisoft Montreal on franchise Far Cry .

In 2016, Red Storm released their first virtual reality game, Werewolves Within , followed by a May 2017 release from another, Star Trek: Bridge Crew .
