The website describes Rainbow Six Siege X and its new features as follows:
Brand New Game Mode
A unique, permanent 6v6 game mode set on our biggest map yet with all-new gameplay elements, such as in-match events and respawns. Combine attackers and defenders and their abilities in ways never before seen, as you and your team attempt to secure the enemy sectors whilst defending your own.
Enhanced Tactical Gameplay
Siege X introduces deepened tactical gameplay, refined game feel and new ways to play. The addition of new destructible elements, such as fire extinguishers, metal detectors and gas pipes, opens endless possibilities and provides unique tools to strategize with.
Visual Overhaul
A major visual overhaul comes with Siege X. Five maps will be fully modernized at launch, with each season bringing three additional map updates.
Rainbow Six Siege initially released in 2015. The new major update, Siege X, will be its biggest update to date. At this rate, it is unlikely that Ubisoft will release a sequel for the game anytime soon, especially considering the failure of games like Rainbow Six Extraction.
Lastly, Rainbow Six Siege is available now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Siege X will release on June 10.
