Rainbow Six Siege Y10S1 downtime: Release of Operation Prep Phase

Seasonal updates are the major turning points in the yearly roadmap of Rainbow Six Siege. Not only do they introduce new operators, but also bring out major balancing changes, map reworks, operator reworks, and so on. Operation Prep Phase is unique as it features no such changes as explained in the Y10S1 Designer's notes. This is because it's the last 'normal' season before the advent of a new era with Siege X.

However, similar to other seasonal updates, the servers will have a 60-minute downtime after the maintenance commences on March 4, 2025, at 14:00 UTC. This implies that players will be able to get back into the game to access the new season on March 4, 2025, at 15:00 UTC.

If an unforeseen delay indefinitely extends the Rainbow Six Siege Y10S1 downtime, Ubisoft will update the information on social media platforms. It is important to note that players across all platforms like Xbox, PC, and PlayStation, are subject to server downtime, for which the countdown can be found here.

Patch Sizes for Rainbow Six Siege Operation Prep Phase across all platforms are as follows:

• Ubisoft Connect: 3.29GB
• Steam: 3GB
• Xbox One: 3.5GB
• Xbox Series X: 3.7GB
• PlayStation®4: 3.50GB
