Rainbow Six Siege's 10th Anniversary

Originally launched on December 1, 2015, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC (Rainbow Six Siege later arrived on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in 2020), the game has received numerous updates over the years, establishing itself as a long-running live-service shooter. Siege X aims to extend the franchise's lifespan further.

A February 17, 2025, Steam post also revealed the arrival of a new operator, Aurora, capable of deploying bulletproof doors, a new elite skin for operator Aruni, and a new reputation system rewarding or penalizing player behavior. These additions will launch in Season 1 of Year 10, Operation Prep Phase, on March 4, 2025, to celebrate the game's 10th anniversary.

Given the Season 10 launch date and the timing of the Rainbow Six Siege X showcase, the major upgrades are expected to be deployed to live servers at a later date.
