R6 Siege X Beta: How To Join, Release Date and More
Siege regularly updates their game every couple of months or so, and usually they like to release a brand new Operator for players to dive into.
Now, they're planning on implementing a Counter-Strike 2 style of update, as they've been working on visual, audio and overall gameplay changes for nearly three years now.
If you're curious about the game itself, you'll be able to hop into the beta between now, and March 19th.
