Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six has always been at the forefront of the tactical shooter genre, keeping players engaged in competitive team-based shootouts for years. It is no surprise Ubisoft’s Rainbow Six Siege remains popular, and marking the 10th anniversary of the game, the publisher has announced a complete gameplay overhaul and a change of title to Rainbow Six Siege X.
An official blog post by Ubisoft stated that aside from the retitling, the game will face its “biggest transformation” in its history by introducing “new ways to play, deepened tactical gameplay, refined game feel and major upgrades all around.”. The overhaul reinforces the franchise’s position as the leading tactical first-person shooter. The news also came with a teaser.
The teaser has revealed nothing new, only showing existing Rainbow Six Siege features. Instead, expectant fans of the franchise can glean further information from Siege X Showcase, broadcast live on Twitch on 13 March 2025, 10am PDT (14 March 2025, 1am SGT). The showcase will explore evolutions coming to Rainbow Six Siege X and other surprises.
With the game’s player base still strong, especially in Singapore when we have a playable character representing the nation, it seems the most recent Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six title is here to stay. All we have to do now is anticipate what the game has next in store as they breach through public eyes with more news during the showcase.
