Rainbow Six Siege X: what was presented in Atlanta
Rainbow Six Siege, celebrating its tenth anniversary, is embarking on a new chapter with Siege X—a transformative update akin to CS2's impact on CS:GO. Launching June 10th, Siege X ushers in a free-to-play era for all.
Key Changes in Siege X:
- New Mode: Dual Front: This 6v6 mode blends attack and defense operators. Teams battle to capture zones and plant sabotage devices across a map featuring three areas per team and a large neutral zone. Respawns occur 30 seconds post-death.
- Advanced Rappel System: Utilize ropes for both vertical and horizontal traversal.
- Increased Environmental Destruction: Expect enhanced destructibility, including explosive fire extinguishers and gas pipes.
- Five Map Reworks: Major updates are coming to five popular maps.
- Graphical & Audio Enhancements: Experience significant visual and audio upgrades.
- Improved Anti-Cheat & Toxicity Measures: Ubisoft is strengthening anti-cheat measures and addressing toxic player behavior.
A closed beta will run for the next seven days, accessible to viewers of Siege streams.
