The next phase of operations is just on the horizon and it’s time to prepare for action. After a successful and productive Closed Alpha on PC, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is returning on a much larger scale for the Closed Beta starting on September 24th. Not only will there be more content, but PS4 and Xbox One owners can join in too, with additional data centers added to cover more regions on all platforms.

Closed Beta FAQ
  • What’s the difference between the closed beta and the closed alpha? Does my guaranteed closed beta code work for both?
The closed alpha testing period comes first. It is an early build of the game, and meant to test for things like bugs and server stability. During a closed alpha testing period, a limited number of participants are invited to test the game and to give community feedback based on their experience, so the final game can be improved. After these improvements are implemented, a closed beta testing period will begin closer to launch. A larger number of participants are invited to test the game, and to troubleshoot matchmaking, server stability, game balancing, etc.

The closed alpha period for Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege will be held exclusively on PC.
The closed beta period will include all gaming platforms on Playstation 4, Xbox One and PC Uplay.
The guaranteed access pre-order offer will be applicable to the closed beta period only.

  • When will the closed beta begin? When will the closed alpha begin?
The dates for the closed alpha will be announced soon. Please visit rainbow6.com for upcoming announcements.
The dates for the closed beta will be announced at a later date.

  • I pre-ordered before the closed beta offer. Will I get a code too?
Yes. If you pre-ordered Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege prior to the promotion of the guaranteed closed beta access offer, your retailer will contact you with your closed beta access code prior to the closed beta going live.

  • What if I have more questions about the guaranteed closed beta offer?
A much more extensive FAQ with details on the closed beta testing period will be posted on the Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege website soon.

Originally posted by 👌Tooty👌: Still a long ass wait for people who purchased the gold edition...... maybe you could release CB sooner or atleast remove it from steam store untill people can actually play.

It was advertised as a pre-order. The dates have been set for quite some time now. We do not currently have any plans to adjust the dates of the Closed Beta test.

We do not have a time frame for that, but rest assured, you will be in the Closed Beta if you pre-ordered.
