Rainbow Six Siege X, a big upgrade to the popular esports game announced

It has become a tradition for developers of popular esports games to unveil major announcements just before the grand finals of their world championships. Ubisoft, staying true to this trend, especially with Rainbow Six Siege entering its tenth year, didn't disappoint. The anticipation was high, and Ubisoft delivered with the announcement of Siege X—a significant upgrade to Rainbow Six Siege.

Siege X is not a sequel, nor is it a mere update. It's being likened to the transformation from Counter-Strike: Global Offensive to Counter-Strike 2. This upgrade promises to be so substantial that it might feel like an entirely new game, yet it will retain all the progress and data from the original Rainbow Six Siege. This move by Ubisoft signals a commitment to evolving the game while honoring the legacy and community investment built over the years.

More details about Siege X will be unveiled during a special presentation set for March 13. Ubisoft is pulling out all the stops for this event, hosting a three-hour-long showcase with a live audience in Atlanta. The excitement doesn't stop there; to mark the tenth anniversary of Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft is offering a special celebratory pack. This pack allows players to unlock legendary skins from the game's earliest seasons, providing a nostalgic all-in-one experience that celebrates a decade of thrilling gameplay.
