Rainbow Six Siege X isn't going through its best moment. As we approach the game's 10th anniversary, players are quickly losing hope on Ubisoft's FPS. In short terms, Rainbow Six Siege X wasn't the game-changing update the players thought it would be.
For instance, Rainbow Six Siege X's player numbers are rapidly falling on Steam, according to Steam Charts. After averaging 80,000 players in June 2025, the game averaged 35,000 players in October 2025. Sure, the console community isn't included in these numbers; but, still, it means PC's average player numbers have been cut by half.
Keeping this in mind, Save Siege has taken over the show in Siege's community. Just like the the overall player numbers, the players' trust in Ubisoft is plummeting too. However, there's still time to keep the boat afloat.
Ubisoft will have another chance to get things back on track in Rainbow Six Siege's upcoming season, Year 10 Season 4. Including a remastered operator, a reworked map, an improvement to Ranked, and many more updates, players see Year 10 Season 4 as a last opportunity to revive Rainbow Six Siege. Can Ubisoft do it?
When is the next season of Rainbow Six Siege?
While the date hasn't been made official yet, we expect the next season of Rainbow Six Siege X to be released on December 2 or December 3, depending on your geographical location.
Usually, Ubisoft reveal the content of each Rainbow Six Siege season during international Siege competitions. Considering the next one will be the BLAST R6 Major Munich, we expect Ubisoft to reveal Year 10 Season 4 on November 16. The Test Server for Year 10 Season 4 should open one day later, on November 17, and the season should be implemented to the game two weeks later; therefore, saying Year 10 Season 4 will be released in the first week of December 2025 makes a lot of sense.
What's coming in Rainbow Six Siege X's Year 10 Season 4?
So far, we know that Rainbow Six Siege X's Year 10 Season 4 will include multiple new features that should refresh the players' experience, including:
- Operator remaster
