2015's *Rainbow Six Siege* revitalized the tactical team shooter genre, captivating online players with a steady stream of annual DLC. This tradition continues with *Rainbow Six Siege X*, celebrating the game's tenth anniversary. Here's everything you need to know, including the release date.
Rainbow Six Siege X Release Date

Following its closed beta, Rainbow Six Siege X is slated for a wide release in June 2025 on consoles and PC. Ubisoft calls this the biggest content update in Rainbow Six Siege history. The closed beta introduced Dual Front, a new 6v6 mode.
Dual Front offers a larger-scale, more chaotic experience than existing modes. Larger maps demand strategic coordination between teammates for attack and defense, requiring objective completion in multiple areas. Siege X also promises revamped maps, a redesigned user interface, enhanced visuals, and a rebalanced matchmaking system designed to improve the experience for new players.
