Ubisoft Unveils Rainbow Six Siege X: A Major Overhaul, Not a Sequel
A familiar pattern in the esports world is for major game developers to drop significant announcements just before a world championship's grand finale. Ubisoft, in keeping with this tradition, and with Rainbow Six Siege entering its tenth year, has delivered a substantial surprise: Siege X.
This isn't simply a new update; it's a comprehensive upgrade to Rainbow Six Siege, described by Ubisoft as something akin to the relationship between Counter-Strike 2 and Global Offensive. Expect a transformative experience that feels like a new game while preserving all player progress and data.
Further details will be revealed during a dedicated three-hour presentation on March 13th, featuring a live audience in Atlanta. To mark Rainbow Six Siege's decade-long run, Ubisoft has also launched a commemorative pack offering legendary skins from the game's earliest seasons – a comprehensive collection of classic cosmetic items.
