Rainbow Six Siege announces free play weekend

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege will be available to play for free from February 15th to 20th. Interested players can join the 25 million strong Rainbow Six Siege community on all consoles and Windows PC via Uplay and Steam.
Players who try the game during the free weekend can carry over their progress and continue to play uninterrupted if they purchase the game (except on the Starter edition).

The first content from Year 3, Season 1, Operation Chimera, will be available on PC through the technical test server starting February 19th and will launch on all platforms on March 6th. Meanwhile, the new co-op mode Outbreak will be playable on PC through the technical test server starting February 20th.

Outbreak will then be available on all platforms from March 6th to April 3rd.
Operation Chimera will mark the beginning of the third year of Rainbow Six Siege. Two new operators, specialists in biohazard situations and playable in adversarial multiplayer, will have to face a major threat in the game’s first co-op event, Outbreak.

Additional details on the content of Operation Chimera and Outbreak event will be unveiled during the Six Invitational finals happening in Montreal on February 16th – 18th.

Everyone participating in the free Rainbow Six Siege let’s-call-it-a-weekend will have access to every map, mode, and Operator currently available. Players can carry over their progress to the full game, should they decide to make a purchase once the event is done.

Those that do stick around, won’t have long to wait until Rainbow Six Siege’s third year of content updates begins. Season One of Year 3 is known as Operation Chimera and incorporates the new limited-time zombies-and-aliens-themed co-op mode, Outbreak.

Operation Chimera and Outbreak will release on PC, Xbox One, and PS4 on March 6th. However, PC players will be able to give Operation Chimera a whirl form February 19th (and Outbreak mode from February 20th) through Rainbow Six Siege’s technical test servers.
