Rainbow Six Siege is getting PC and console cross-play next month
Matchmaking between PC and console players is coming to Rainbow Six Siege in December
Ubisoft is finally adding Rainbow Six Siege cross-play between PC and console.
Support for cross-play on all platforms will launch in December with Rainbow Six Siege’s Year 9 Season 4 update, Operation Collision Point.
It will let players matchmake with friends no matter what platform they’re playing on, but if there’s a PC player in the squad, then the team will always be in the PC matchmaking pool.
Cross-play and cross-progression for Rainbow Six Siege was originally enabled for PC, Amazon Luna and a Stadia version of the game in June 2021.
Cross-play was then made available between Xbox and PlayStation consoles in late 2022, when cross-progression was also enabled across all platforms.
“Player Protection advances this season include Mousetrap Penalty adjustments to account for crossplay, automatic match cancellation if a cheater is detected, an overhaul for the Reputation center, and AI text moderation,” Ubisoft said.
Operation Collision Point will also introduce a special new variant of the ballistic shield for Blackbeard, plus balancing updates for Ying and Sens, among other features.
Ubisoft said last month that Rainbow Six Siege has generated over €3.5 billion since its release in 2015.
In comparison, the entire Assassin’s Creed franchise has generated around €4 billion since it debuted in 2007.
