- "Scale the snow-capped Mok Myeok Tower to lead a rescue mission in Seoul, South Korea. The modern communications and observation tower offers fresh vertical vantage points overlooking the entire cityscape, and sets the stage for diverse multilevel tactics."
— Ubisoft Description
Tower is a map featured in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege and was introduced in the Operation White Noise expansion.[1] Tower is featured in Quick Match and Custom Game playlist.
A modified version of the map also serves as the setting for the M.U.T.E. Protocol and M.U.T.E. Protocol Reloaded events.
Overview[]
This is map is set in a rescue mission at the very top of Seoul's modern communications and observation tower called Mok Myeok Tower (목멱) with its great cityscape view located in South Korea. Compared to other maps in the game, Tower has more densely packed areas making it suitable for both roaming and large aggression-based techniques. Towers' dense spaces will encourage both Attackers and Defenders to roam around, thus teams must ensure their Operators can respond to situations on the fly.
Given Tower's roam-heavy layout, both sides must take such opportunities to strengthen their gameplay while taking advantage of the Tower's interconnected rooms with a lot of angles. Attackers must rely on their intel work in this regard, ensuring that they have a good understanding of the Defender's focused defenses so that they know where to attack. Aside from that, one of the most practical ways to catch the Defenders off surprise is to strike quickly and loosely, guaranteeing many points of contact and a clear line of sight to ensure the planting is secure with no margin for error. While Defenders should instantly open hatches to secure their rotational advancements, and keep an eye out for any attackers attempting to counter-flank. Tower has four objective plant locations, all of which are within walking distance of one other. Because this map's areas are interconnected, it makes sense for one area to have a direct line of sight to another.

Trivia[]
- An ornate case is present on a cabinet in 1F Bird Room. Destroying the top of the ornate case reveals that the case is connected to the cabinet and acts as a disguised opening to it, and the player can then throw a drone into the cabinet. Once inside, the drone can see several books. Destroying the books by jumping the drone on them reveals a hidden drone passage, which leads to a secret Easter Egg area.[2]
- The Easter Egg area contains a small sculpture that casts a shadow showing the cover art of Rainbow Six Siege from a flashlight near it. The "Ballistic Shield" is adorned with the "6" from the Rainbow Six Siege logo.
- Multiple chibi operator busts are hidden around the map:
- A chibi Smoke is hidden inside the Easter Egg area.
- A chibi Tachanka is hidden under the desk at the 2F Info Booth.
- A chibi Montagne is hidden on a shelf in the 2F Supply Room.
- A chibi Ash is hidden inside a whiskey bottle in the 2F CEO's Office.
- A chibi IQ is hidden behind a breakable surface in the 2F Gift Shop.
- The name of the tower, as observed in-game and provided by official materials, is Mok Myeok Tower (Hangeul: 목멱 타워).
- In 2F Supply Room, a calendar by the desk always displays the correct date.
- In 1F Kitchen, a cake bearing the Ubisoft logo, with 20 candles, and the words "Happy Birthday" can be found. Destroying the cake reveals the plate, which has a barcode sticker saying "Made in Montreal" and "1997-2017". The cake commemorates the 20th anniversary of Ubisoft Montreal.
- The Songs Playing In the Gift Shop are Save Me - Verseatile and Encounter - Simon No.
- With the release of Y8S3 Operation Heavy Mettle, subtle visual changes have been made to the map, referencing the events that take place in the season's lore, including massive bulletholes and fire on the external portion of the map, as well as a memorial with the pictures of the fallen recruits that died in Deimos' attack, including Cheon "Angel" Sa-Ya.
- The Namsan Tower can be seen West North at the EXT North Roof.
