Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Tactics Rainbow Six Tactics Release Date
The year is 2027. The month is not public. Here is everything around that sentence.
Ubisoft’s official line is that Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Tactics launches in 2027. Steam’s page says the same year with no day. IGN, Xbox Wire, PlayStation, and Game Informer all repeated 2027 without a quarter. This page will gain a month when Ubisoft writes a month. Until then, do not trust a storefront placeholder that reads 31 December — that is how databases store “sometime this year.”
Platforms at launch
Confirmed across Ubisoft’s own posts and store pages:
- PC: Steam, Ubisoft Connect, Epic Games Store.
- PlayStation 5.
- Xbox Series X|S.
- Subscription / cloud named for launch: Ubisoft+, GeForce Now, Blacknut.
Not confirmed: Nintendo Switch 2, last-gen consoles, mobile. If a roundup added extra SKUs, check whether Ubisoft’s list contained them. This wiki’s platforms tool follows the official set.
Price and editions
IGN reported a $49.99 retail price. That is a complete-campaign number, not a battle-pass hook: Ubisoft told press there is no in-game store and no live-service structure. No deluxe, no season pass, and no pre-order bonus list is public. When an edition comparison appears, it will be a table on this page and on links, not a guess about steelbooks.
What “2027” means for planning
You have a year-class wait, not a month-class wait. Use it:
- Wishlist now so a date drop emails you. Links hub.
- Register interest for the Closed Test.
- Learn the four jobs on squad building so a date announcement is not your first time hearing about Montagne.
- Do not pre-spend on hardware for this title until platforms has a real GPU line. Steam currently lists Windows 11 and nothing else useful.
Story and content expectations at ship
The reveal promised a single-player campaign with dozens of missions, 15 operators, HQ, and about 90 minutes of cinematics. That is the launch shape. It is not a 10-year service. If 2027 marketing later adds post-launch maps, we will date that change. We will not assume it.
Date-drop protocol
When a month is announced — show, Steam timed event, or Ubisoft Forward — this page’s first sentence changes, getting started gets a line, and the homepage facts row updates. We will not hide a date inside a guide paragraph. Dates live here.
If you only remember one thing: Rainbow Six Tactics is upcoming, not launched. Any page on this wiki that sounded like you could buy a finished campaign tomorrow would be a mistake. For the announcement week itself, read the Gamescom 2026 recap.
A 2027 window also changes how you should spend money and time. Do not pre-order a console only for this title until a month is public — PS5 and Xbox Series already have other 2027 calendars. Do not assume a Steam Deck verify will land with the Windows 11 stub. Do not treat $49.99 as a forever price; regional VAT and a later deluxe SKU can move it. Do treat the no-store promise as the feature that separates Tactics from Siege’s live years, and check Updates if that sentence ever changes. Between now and the date drop, the useful loop is still the same: wishlist, register interest in the Closed Test, learn four jobs, and keep this page bookmarked so a month announcement is a one-line edit instead of a rumor chase.
