Rainbow Six Siege Upcoming 10th Year Anniversary
Originally launched on December 1, 2015, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, Rainbow Six Siege has since been ported to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2020. The game has seen continuous updates, making it one of the longest-running live-service shooter games across multiple platforms. With the major update on the horizon, the longevity of the Rainbow Six franchise is poised to extend further.
In a Steam post dated February 17, 2025, Ubisoft introduced a new operator, Aurora, who can deploy bulletproof doors. Additionally, a new elite skin for operator Aruni and a reputation system that rewards or penalizes players based on their in-game behavior during a season will be introduced. These features will be part of Season 1 of its 10th year, Operation Prep Phase, launching on March 4, 2025, in celebration of the game's 10th anniversary.
Given the launch date of Season 10 and the timing of the Rainbow Six Siege X showcase, it appears that the major upgrades will be implemented on the live servers at a later date.
