Rainbow Six Siege is coming to Xbox Game Pass this week

Over the weekend, Microsoft began teasing a rather big addition to Xbox Game Pass with a picture that seemed to hint at Rainbow Six Siege. Now to kick off this week, the company has confirmed that Ubisoft's popular multiplayer shooter is coming. 

The Xbox Game Pass library will gain Rainbow Six Siege on the 22nd of October. Right now, it appears that this is for console only, not including the PC version of Xbox Game Pass.

This comes at an excellent time, as we are just on the verge of next-gen consoles releasing. In the case of the Xbox Series X and series S, new console buyers will be able to play Rainbow Six Siege at up to 120 frames per second and 4K resolution after a free upgrade patch.

We aren't sure how much content is included with the Game Pass version of Rainbow Six Siege, but presumably, it will be the standard edition, which includes the base game with its original operators. All DLC operators are unlockable through earnable in-game currency.

KitGuru Says: Rainbow Six Siege is a good fit for Game Pass, especially now with new console launches coming up.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
