Rainbow Six Siege

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege, the first-person tactical shooter which was released on the Xbox One back in December 2015 will once again be free to play for Xbox Live Gold subscribers this weekend. Just like during the previous free weekend six months ago, players will have access to all the game’s content and be able to pick up where they left off if they decide to purchase the title. And if you like it, you’ll have a good incentive to do so as the game will also receive a 50% discount during the weekend.

The free Rainbow Six Siege weekend will kick off on Thursday, February 2 at 12:01 a.m. and last through Sunday, February 5 at 11:59 p.m. PST. For Xbox Live Gold subscribers, the game will be featured in the Gold Member area on the Xbox One dashboard where you’ll be able to download it.

Last but not least, you’re invited to tune in to the Six Invitational tournament during the weekend which will live streamed on Twitch, YouTube and Facebook: on Saturday, the game’s upcoming Velvet Shell DLC will be unveiled during the teaser panels from 9:45 a.m. to 12:35 p.m.
