Ubisoft (UBSFY) announced that “Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege X,” the largest and most transformative evolution in the game’s history, will launch as a free update on June 10 on Ubisoft+, Ubisoft’s subscription service, PlayStation 4 (SONY), PlayStation 5, the Xbox One (MSFT) family of consoles, Xbox Series X S, Windows PC, including on Steam, and Amazon Luna (AMZN). Siege X will introduce Dual Front, a new permanent and evolving 6v6 mode. In this mode, players must secure three enemy sectors while defending their own across an all-new map called District, designed exclusively for Dual Front. Players will choose from a curated roster of 35 operators, mixing both Attackers and Defenders for the first time in Siege to combine their unique abilities, weapons and gadgets in ways never seen before. Throughout the match, players can venture into the Neutral Sector to take on time-limited assignments and earn rewards that will help their squad gain an edge over their opponents. Siege X will visually enhance classic Siege maps, with new lighting, shadows and up to 4K textures. Clubhouse, Chalet, Border, Bank and Kafe will be enhanced at launch, with three additional modernized maps being added each season. In addition, the update will add gameplay features that deepen the game’s tactical core, creating a more dynamic and immersive experience. Players can check out Dual Front in the Siege X closed beta, now through March 19 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X S and PC via Ubisoft Connect. The beta will include the full Dual Front experience and operator roster of 35, a preview of additional Siege X updates including destructible ingredients and rappel upgrades as well as custom games to squad up with friends. Players can get beta access through Twitch Drops by watching partnered creator streams and are not required to own Rainbow Six Siege to access.
