About

Rainbow Six Siege is a tactical first person shooter built around preparation and team coordination. Players choose from a roster of more than 70 operators, each defined by unique weapons, gadgets, and abilities that directly influence how every round is played. Teams alternate between attacking and defending roles, with success relying on map knowledge, communication, and disciplined execution. Its realistic gunplay and fully destructible environments have established Rainbow Six Siege as a defining title in the competitive tactical shooter genre.

Since its release in 2015, Rainbow Six Siege has developed into one of the most established esports ecosystems in the world. A structured global circuit and consistent developer support helped elevate methodical gameplay, where information control is central to victory. Today, the competitive scene features elite teams and veteran players pushing the game to new strategic heights. Rainbow Six Siege’s presence at the Esports World Cup reflects its longevity, competitive integrity, and continued relevance on the global stage.
