Is Rainbow Six Siege X on PlayStation, Xbox, or PC? All Platforms & Consoles Explained

Rainbow Six Siege X is available now for free, but is the game on your platform or console of choice?

In Rainbow Six Siege X, Quick Match, Unranked, and the new game mode, Dual Front, are all free to access. However, Ranked, additional operators, and other cosmetics require upgrading to premium.

Additionally, all returning users retain their current content and progression, including access to Ranked mode and all operators they have previously unlocked. And, depending on which year you started, there are also legacy rewards for series veterans. With that out of the way, let’s take a look at all of the supported platforms and consoles.

Rainbow Six Siege X is available on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4.

However, the Dual Front Game mode is not supported on PlayStation 4. And although the PS5 and PS5 Pro have different performance expectations for some titles, that isn’t the case with Rainbow Six Siege X.

In Quality mode, both the PS5 and PS5 Pro feature a 2160p resolution and a target performance of 60 frames per second. Meanwhile, in Performance mode, both systems have a target performance of 120 FPS in the core Siege game modes and 60 FPS in Dual Front.

Can You Play Rainbow Six Siege X on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One?

Rainbow Six Siege is available on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.

However, as previously mentioned with the PS4, Dual Front is not supported on Xbox One. Additionally, there is one key difference between playing on an Xbox Series S and a Series X.

On Series S, the game features a 1080p performance resolution and a 1728p quality resolution. However, on Xbox Series X, the game has 2160p resolution regardless of which mode you play in.

Can You Play Rainbow Six Siege X on PC?

PC users can also play Rainbow Six Siege X via Steam.

The game features full support for Xbox and PlayStation controllers. In saying that, it also requires you to launch the game through Ubisoft Connect. Rainbow Six Siege is unsupported on Steam Deck, and it’s unclear if Ubisoft has plans to add support at a future date.
