Rainbow Six Siege X Release Date
*Rainbow Six Siege X*, having moved past its closed beta phase, is set to launch globally in June 2025 for both console and PC players. Ubisoft, the game's publisher, touts this update as the most significant content overhaul *Rainbow Six Siege* has ever seen. A key highlight in the closed beta is the introduction of the Dual Front game mode, which features intense 6-on-6 team battles.
