Rainbow Six Siege X: what was presented in Atlanta

Rainbow Six Siege, celebrating its tenth anniversary, is embarking on a significant transformation with Siege X. Think of it as Siege's equivalent to CS2's impact on CS:GO. Launching June 10th, Siege X ushers in a new era, most notably by becoming free-to-play.

Here's a glimpse at the key changes:

New Mode: Dual Front – This innovative 6v6 mode blends attack and defense operators. Teams battle to capture zones and deploy sabotage devices across a map divided into three areas per team and a central neutral zone. Respawn time is a quick 30 seconds.

Advanced Rappel System – Get ready for enhanced tactical movement! Players can now utilize ropes for both vertical and horizontal traversal.

Increased Environmental Destruction – Expect even more dynamic gameplay. The trailer highlighted new destructible elements, including explosive fire extinguishers and gas pipes.

Five Map Reworks – Five popular maps are receiving major overhauls, promising fresh strategic opportunities.

Graphical & Audio Enhancements – Prepare for a visually stunning and aurally immersive experience. Ubisoft is implementing substantial upgrades to both graphics and sound.

Improved Anti-Cheat & Toxicity Measures – Ubisoft is committed to enhancing its anti-cheat systems and addressing toxic behavior within the community.

A closed beta will be available within the next seven days for those who tune into Siege streams.
