Let the Siege Games begin! To celebrate the approaching launch of Rainbow Six Siege, Ubisoft is launching a competitive tour spanning several cities across the United States of America. At each of the four events, players will fight to nail the highest score in Rainbow Six Siege in the hopes of winning the grand prize: a trip to Los Angeles for the Siege Day launch event, where they will be able to compete against celebrities and other gamers from around the world. Take a look at the tour schedule below to see if the Siege Games will be heading to a city near you.

Whether you're at one of the events or playing at home during the closed beta, you can enter alone or with friends and play as many times as you like.
Ubisoft is teaming up with Extra Life to raise funds for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals through gaming. Starting today, if you donate more than $6 to Extra Life, you'll get a code for guaranteed access to Rainbow Six Siege's September closed beta. These codes will be distributed to those who donated by mid-July.
"At Extra Life, our motto is ‘play games, heal kids.' Giving back to the kids who need it most should be fun, and what's more fun than playing games?" said Michael Kinney, Team Extra Life. "We're thrilled to combine the passion of Rainbow Six fans and the Extra Life community to create an astronomical force for good to help sick and injured kids everywhere."
Rainbow Six Siege will be breaching your PS4, Xbox One and PC on October 13 worldwide.
