Rainbow Six Siege documentary reveals the tactical shooter’s esports scene

You hear a lot about Overwatch and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive in esports, but Ubisoft has a shooter of its own that has attracted pro gamers.

The French publisher today released a short documentary on a recent Rainbow Six Siege tournament, the Six Invitational, that took place in Montreal in February. You can watch it above. Siege came out in 2015 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The series (from the Tom Clancy book series) launched in 1998, and it has become a core franchise for Ubisoft, selling over 26 million games before the release of Siege.
