New Rainbow Six Siege Game Reportedly in Development with Enhanced Graphics

A recent leak from an insider known as fraxiswinning suggests Ubisoft will unveil Rainbow Six Siege 2 at the Six Invitational 2025, scheduled for February 14-16 at the MGM Music Hall.

This purported sequel, codenamed Siege X, reportedly utilizes a revamped engine, boasting enhanced visuals with updated textures and character models. Furthermore, the source claims Ubisoft plans to forgo returning temporary events from the original, focusing instead on entirely new content. A projected release date falls within the second season of the game's tenth year of support, placing it around mid-2025.

This contradicts previous statements by Rainbow Six Siege creative director Alexander Karpazis, who expressed that a full sequel wasn't necessary given the ongoing development of the current game. However, if the leak proves accurate, Ubisoft's stance appears to have shifted.

It's crucial to approach such rumors with skepticism. Until an official announcement from Ubisoft, this information remains purely speculative.

The upcoming Rainbow Six Siege World Championship, Six Invitational 2025, is rapidly approaching. Twenty teams will battle in Boston for a prize pool of $3,000,000 and the coveted championship title. Oxygen Esports, victors of the North American Last Chance Qualifier, secured the final qualifying spot.

This twenty-team competition is unusual. While Ubisoft might retain a similar format to last year – four groups with round-robin matches between five teams, followed by a double-elimination playoff – alternative structures remain a possibility.

The anticipated playoff structure likely involves a first-place team receiving a bye in the first round, fourth place entering the lower bracket, the remaining teams starting in the upper bracket, and the last-place team in each group being eliminated.
