Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft's acclaimed tactical shooter now celebrating its ninth year, is set to receive significant enhancements under the banner of Rainbow Six Siege X. Ubisoft made this announcement on February 17, 2025, promising more detailed information in the coming month.
The Rainbow Six Siege X showcase is scheduled for March 13, 2025, at 10:00 am (PDT) / 1:00 pm (EDT) in Atlanta, Georgia. This event will spotlight the extensive changes planned for the game. Ubisoft describes it as "an immersive and one-of-a-kind Siege experience," where players, creators, and developers will unite to explore the evolutions of Siege X and enjoy additional surprises.
For those eager to attend the event in person, a ticket priced at USD $10 is required. This ticket includes an exclusive long-sleeve shirt and an in-game cosmetic pack. However, attendees must meet the following eligibility criteria:

In addition, Ubisoft is offering VIP packages for two fortunate Rainbow Six fans, which include a hotel stay, roundtrip flight, and entry to the Showcase event. This giveaway is also limited to legal residents of the USA and Canada.
Rainbow Six Siege X promises to bring "new ways to play, deepened tactical gameplay, refined game feel, and major upgrades all around." The exact nature of these enhancements will be fully revealed at the upcoming showcase.
Rainbow Six Siege Upcoming 10th Year Anniversary
Originally launched on December 1, 2015, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, Rainbow Six Siege has since expanded to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2020. Over the years, Ubisoft has continually updated the game, establishing it as a stalwart in the live-service shooter genre. The forthcoming major update could further solidify the longevity of the Rainbow Six franchise.
In a recent Steam post dated February 17, 2025, Ubisoft introduced a new operator named Aurora, who can deploy bulletproof doors. Additionally, a new elite skin for operator Aruni and a new reputation system designed to reward or penalize players based on in-season behavior were announced. These features will be introduced in Season 1 of the game's 10th year, dubbed Operation Prep Phase, on March 4, 2025, in celebration of the game's 10th anniversary.
Given the timing of Season 10's launch and the scheduled showcase for Rainbow Six Siege X, it appears that the major upgrades will be implemented on the live servers at a later date.
