In Ubisoft's raised guidance for fiscal 2007-2008, Yves Guillemot, President and CEO of Ubisoft, said:
"Assassin’s Creed and our Games For Everyone brands continued their strong performance and Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 had a better than expected start. One year after the great success of the first title, the second iteration, which provides another unique multi-player experience in the much enjoyed Tom Clancy environment, is ranked among the top games on Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3 in almost every country."

With part two doing so well, is Ubisoft really saying goodbye to the Vegas outing this time? It's likely Vegas won't be the final assignment for Team Rainbow.
