Rainbow Six Siege X Unveiled
The March 2025 Rainbow Six Siege Showcase
Nine years after its launch, Rainbow Six Siege is getting a massive upgrade, dubbed Rainbow Six Siege X. Ubisoft announced this on February 17, 2025, with further details promised for March.
The Rainbow Six Siege X showcase is set for March 13, 2025, at 10:00 am PDT / 1:00 pm EDT in Atlanta, Georgia. This event will detail the extensive changes coming to the game. Ubisoft promises an immersive experience bringing players, creators, and developers together to reveal the evolutions of Siege X, along with other surprises.
In-person attendance requires a USD $10 ticket, which includes an exclusive long-sleeve shirt and an in-game cosmetic pack. Eligibility is limited to:
- Legal residents of the USA and Canada
- At least 18 years old
- A good standing Rainbow Six Siege account (no bans or sanctions)
Ubisoft is also offering two lucky fans a VIP package including hotel stay, roundtrip flights, and entry to the showcase. This giveaway is also limited to legal residents of the USA and Canada.
This update promises "new ways to play, deepened tactical gameplay, refined game feel, and major upgrades across the board." Specific details will be revealed during the showcase.
Rainbow Six Siege's Upcoming 10th Anniversary
Initially released on December 1, 2015, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, Rainbow Six Siege later came to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2020. Years of updates have made it one of the longest-running live-service shooters. This major update promises to further extend the franchise's lifespan.
A February 17, 2025 Steam post also revealed a new operator, Aurora, with deployable bulletproof doors. A new elite skin for Aruni and a new reputation system rewarding or punishing player behavior are also coming. These additions will launch in Season 1 of Year 10, Operation Prep Phase, on March 4, 2025, to celebrate the game's 10th anniversary.
Given the Season 10 launch date and the Rainbow Six Siege X showcase timing, the major Siege X upgrades will likely be implemented on live servers at a later date.
