It has become a tradition for developers of popular esports games to make significant announcements just before the grand finals of world championships. Ubisoft, following this trend and marking the tenth year of Rainbow Six Siege, did not disappoint. They unveiled Siege X, a major upgrade to Rainbow Six Siege. Ubisoft emphasized that Siege X is neither a sequel nor just a simple update. It's akin to what Counter-Strike 2 was to Global Offensive—a substantial enhancement that feels like a new game, yet retains all player progress and data from the original.
More details about Siege X will be revealed at a special presentation scheduled for March 13. Ubisoft is planning a grand three-hour event with a live audience in Atlanta to celebrate this milestone. Additionally, to commemorate ten years of Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft has released a special celebratory pack. This pack offers players the chance to unlock legendary skins from the game's earliest seasons, essentially providing an all-in-one collection of nostalgic and rare cosmetics.
