Rainbow Six Siege Upcoming 10th Year Anniversary
Originally launched on December 1, 2015, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, Rainbow Six Siege was later ported to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2020. Over the years, Ubisoft has consistently updated the game, maintaining its status as one of the longest-running live-service shooter games across various platforms. The upcoming major update could further extend the longevity of the Rainbow Six franchise.
In a 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 that rewards or punishes players based on their behavior during a season were announced. These features will be available starting from Season 1 of the game's 10th year, dubbed Operation Prep Phase, launching on March 4, 2025, in celebration of the game's 10th anniversary.
Given the timeline between Season 10's launch and the showcase for Rainbow Six Siege X, it appears that the major upgrades will be implemented on the live servers at a later date.
