Steamforged Games acquires 6: Siege - The Board Game, available to preorder now

Rainbow Six Siege fans rejoice, there's hope again for the Siege board game after Steamforged Games acquired the IP from Mythic Games.

Manchester, UK - February 24, 2025 - Steamforged Games, leading studio and publisher of licensed tabletop games, has today announced acquisition of the board game based on Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege, the acclaimed first-person shooter video game from Ubisoft.

6: Siege – The Board Game is an asymmetrical, multiplayer board game in which 2-4 players become attackers or defenders and go head-to-head on destructible maps. Gameplay is fast and frenetic, designed to simulate the cinematic tension of real-time action. After hand-selecting a powerful team of five uniquely skilled Operators, each with different gadgets and abilities, attackers must use their explosive arsenal and exploit any opening to reach their objective, while defenders shape the battleground and block their opponents by any means necessary.

Operators are represented as detailed miniatures, including fan-favourites such as Ash, Tachanka, Thermite, Jäger, and more. With more than 60 operators to choose from across the core box and expansions, and multiple maps to stage battles on, players can test different strategies and combinations across many playthroughs.

This strategic acquisition positions Steamforged Games to take over ongoing development, production, and distribution of 6: Siege – The Board Game. With a strong portfolio of board games inspired by triple-A video games — including ELDEN RING, DARK SOULS, Monster Hunter: World, Resident Evil, and more — Steamforged’s stewardship will ensure the board game's continued success and expansion.
Steamforged Games co-founder and CEO, Rich Loxam, said:

“Rainbow Six Siege has a legacy that speaks for itself, and there’s plenty still to explore on the tabletop. We’re thrilled to be working with Ubisoft to take 6: Siege – The Board Game forward, and look forward to welcoming fans into our community.”

6: Siege – The Board Game will return from February 27th as a pre-order from Steamforged Games, including a reprint of the core box and expansions, as well as brand new, exclusive content from Steamforged.
