It's become a beloved tradition for developers of top esports games to drop major announcements just before the grand finals of their world championships. Ubisoft, the mastermind behind Rainbow Six Siege, is no exception. As the game gears up for its monumental tenth year, the anticipation was palpable, and Ubisoft did not disappoint!
In a thrilling revelation, Ubisoft unveiled Siege X, marking a significant upgrade to Rainbow Six Siege. The developers clarified that while this isn't a sequel, it's far more than just a routine update. Think of Siege X to Rainbow Six Siege as akin to what Counter-Strike 2 is to Global Offensive—a transformative overhaul that feels like a new game, yet retains all your progress and data from the original version.
Mark your calendars for March 13, when Ubisoft will host a special three-hour presentation in Atlanta, complete with a live audience. This event promises to delve deeper into what Siege X has in store for fans. To commemorate a decade of Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft is also rolling out a special celebratory pack. This all-in-one pack gives players the chance to unlock legendary skins from the game's earliest seasons, offering a nostalgic nod to the journey so far.
