Rainbow Six Siege Cup schedule revealed for August

Ubisoft has revealed details for Rainbow Six Siege X’s most competitive in-game mode, Siege Cup, for August this year.

The event is scheduled to take place on August 3rd across five major regions: NA, EU + MENA, LATAM, OCE and APAC.

The latest installment of the Siege Cup will follow a similar format and schedule to the previous event in July.

These are all the start times for the Siege Cup in August across all five regions:

The tournament will take advantage of the Siege X updates, utilising its enhanced visuals, destructible ingredients and round-based bans in a tournament setting. It should also prove to be the most stable one yet, in light of Ubisoft releasing various patches to address Siege X’s most problematic bugs and glitches.

Siege Cup is a limited-time game mode within Rainbow Six Siege, allowing fans to emulate the esports scene by competing in a tournament format. It is often regarded by fans as the most competitive form of play within the game outside of professional esports.

Players enter with squads of five, but the Siege Cup requires each player to be clearance level 50 or above and have a clean reputation/ sanctions history. Squads then compete against one another in a bracket format, with Competitive Coins up for grabs as they progress through the tournament.

The amount of Competitive Coins teams earn is based on tiers and final positions, which are all determined by performance. Introduced in operation Twin Shell, Competitive Coins are an unpurchasable currency that can be earned through Ranked or the Siege Cup playlist, and can be redeemed for Competitive Packs, offering unique cosmetics for a player’s efforts.

Players can register for the tournament through the in-game playlist. Ubisoft has a full list of FAQ’s for players curious about specific terms and conditions.
