Rainbow Six Siege Update Will Add Cross-Play, Cross-Progression

Ubisoft has announced both cross-play and cross-progression are coming to Rainbow Six Siege. Starting on June 30, players on PC, Stadia, and Luna will be able to carry their progress between the three systems, with cross-play available between platforms on the same account. By early 2022, cross-play will be available between PlayStation and Xbox, though the two consoles will still be unable to team up with those on PC.

The announcement comes as a part of E3’s Ubisoft Forward conference and follows a new cinematic trailer for the next Rainbow Six entry, Rainbow Six Extraction. However, despite having a new Rainbow Six title in the works, we can safely assume Ubisoft fully intends to keep things going strong for its 200,000 concurrent Siege players, especially as it just revealed a brand-new Siege Operator, Thunderbird.
