Rainbow Six Siege X is set to launch widely in June 2025, available to both console and PC players. After a closed beta phase, this update is heralded by Ubisoft as the most significant content revamp in Rainbow Six Siege's history. Among the highlights is the introduction of the Dual Front game mode, which is already available in the closed beta. This mode features 6-on-6 team battles on larger maps, requiring more strategic coordination to attack and defend various areas to meet objectives.
The Siege X update will also feature revamped maps, a revised user interface, improved technical presentation, and a rebalanced online matchmaking system designed to enhance the experience for newer players.
To mark the launch of its closed beta test on March 13, 2025, Ubisoft unveiled a gameplay trailer for Rainbow Six Siege X. The trailer showcases the thrilling Dual Front mode and its expansive 6-on-6 gameplay on new maps. It also teases enhancements to the game's core elements, such as its technical presentation, new gameplay features, and rewards for existing players. Additionally, Rainbow Six Siege X will offer free-to-play access, inviting new players to join the action.
The closed beta for Rainbow Six Siege X ran from March 13 to March 19, 2025, and was accessible to select partner players on Twitch. Viewers who watched these streams during the beta period had the opportunity to receive access codes for the six-day window. To participate, players needed to link their Twitch account with their Ubisoft Connect account. Notably, owning the original Rainbow Six Siege was not a prerequisite for joining the Siege X closed beta.
Ubisoft has provided comprehensive information about the Siege X closed beta and how players can potentially gain access on their official website. There are currently no plans announced for further beta testing, including an open beta, before the full release of Siege X in June. As Rainbow Six Siege prepares for its most ambitious update yet, it continues Ubisoft's long-standing tradition of delivering engaging games inspired by Tom Clancy's works, promising an exciting new chapter with Siege X.
