Ubisoft's Rainbow Six Siege X: A Major Update, Not a New Game

Ubisoft recently unveiled Rainbow Six Siege X, not as a new game, but as a significant upgrade to the existing Rainbow Six Siege. This announcement, made on February 17, 2025, precedes the game's 10th anniversary. Details are slated for a major showcase.

March 2025 Showcase

The Rainbow Six Siege X showcase is scheduled for March 13, 2025, at 10:00 am PDT / 1:00 pm EDT in Atlanta, Georgia. This event promises a deep dive into the substantial gameplay changes, described as "new ways to play, deepened tactical gameplay, refined game feel, and major upgrades." In-person attendance requires a $10 ticket (including a shirt and in-game cosmetic pack) and meeting specific eligibility criteria:

  • Legal resident of the USA or Canada
  • 18 years or older
  • A good standing Rainbow Six Siege account (no bans or sanctions)

A VIP package giveaway, including travel and accommodation, is also available for two lucky US and Canadian residents.
