Canada and the United States are the only countries participating in the first edition because the North American continent is renowned for its high profile collegiate esports. Furthermore, Ubisoft’s vision is expanding globally, as the trend for esports is more popular than ever.

Ubisoft Collegiate Esports has released the official site where schools can register for the tournament. This represents the second major revamp of the Rainbow Six Siege’s esports structure, coming after the announcement of the new European and North American League.

RS6 has reached a colossal global audience of over 60 million players, positioning itself as one of the most played games in the community. In August 2020, the game has clocked at 43 million hours watch time on Twitch.tv, a popular streaming platform owned by Amazon.

With the release of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X next-gen consoles, Ubisoft has announced that they are working on a free update, which will enable players to enjoy RS6 in 4K at 120 FPS. It’s great that you won’t have to repurchase the game since this update targets console gamers that have already purchased RS6 on the current-gen consoles.

If you and your crew are ready for a challenge, the Rainbow Six Collegiate Championship is a competition you shouldn’t miss out on. Make sure you meet all the conditions, register, and prepare for battle!
