Rainbow Six Siege is getting its biggest overhaul since its release in 2015. Ubisoft is celebrating its 10th anniversary with the release of Siege X, a major update that is set to improve gameplay and graphics.

Siege X is releasing soon, and it is set to make Rainbow Six Siege more visually appealing with updated graphics and lighting system. Siege is shifting back to a darker tone with its map, like the good old days.

However, that is not all. Siege X also brings new gameplay elements that will make the maps feel more interactive, with explosive canisters, fire extinguishers, and more. These new changes will come at a cost to players with older hardware, as Ubisoft has revealed the updated PC System Requirements to play Siege X smoothly.

Siege X: PC Specifications

Siege X is still an esports title, so it still does not require any unrealistic PC hardware. However, in an FPS title, a high and stable framerate is a key factor to win your gunfights. So we suggest lowering your graphics settings to maximise performance.
