Rainbow Six Siege X: Major Esports Game Upgrade Announced

In the world of esports, it's almost a tradition for game developers to drop major announcements just before the grand finals of a world championship. Ubisoft, the mastermind behind Rainbow Six Siege, certainly didn't break from this tradition, especially as the game marks its tenth year. And yes, they delivered something big!

Ubisoft unveiled Siege X, a monumental upgrade to Rainbow Six Siege. The developers clarified that this isn't a sequel, but it's far from just a routine update. We can anticipate that Siege X to Rainbow Six Siege will be akin to what Counter-Strike 2 is to Global Offensive—a significant enhancement that feels like a new game, while retaining all your progress and data from the original version.

More insights into Siege X are slated to be revealed at a special presentation scheduled for March 13. Ubisoft is pulling out all the stops for this event, promising a three-hour extravaganza with a live audience in Atlanta. To celebrate a decade of Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft is also launching a special commemorative pack. This pack gives players the chance to unlock legendary skins from the game's earliest seasons, offering an all-in-one nostalgic experience.
