Rainbow Six Siege Upcoming 10th Year Anniversary
Originally launched on December 1, 2015, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, Rainbow Six Siege expanded to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2020. Over the years, Ubisoft has consistently updated the game, cementing its status as a long-lasting live-service shooter across multiple platforms. The impending major update with Siege X could further extend the life of the Rainbow Six franchise.
In a Steam post dated February 17, 2025, Ubisoft introduced a new operator, Aurora, capable of deploying bulletproof doors. Additionally, a new elite skin for operator Aruni and a new reputation system that rewards or penalizes players based on their in-game behavior will be introduced. These features will launch in Season 1 of the 10th year, Operation Prep Phase, on March 4, 2025, in celebration of the game's milestone anniversary.
Given the timing of Season 10's launch and the showcase for Rainbow Six Siege X, it appears that the major upgrades will be implemented on the live servers at a later date.
