The Six Invitational 2018 is Rainbow Six Siege's biggest event and the pinnacle of the game's competitive scene. It is already in full swing as the group stage started on 13 February 2018 but the main event starts this weekend.
This is the big one for Rainbow 6 Siege. Both the community and the competitive scene have grown and this is reflected in the tournament's prize pool which is now £357.000,00. This is more than double compared to last year's £142.800,00.
The best Sixteen teams worldwide are already battling it out, but only eight will remain for the knockout rounds scheduled for the weekend.
