Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege will run on dedicated servers, Ubisoft has confirmed.

The game will use the Microsoft Azure datacentres located in Australia.

“Local servers have been a priority from day one,” said Ubisoft Australia MD Edward Fong.

“It is essential that Australian gamers get to experience the same online environment as players across the globe.”

The datacentres will also be up and running for the closed beta which begins on September 25 – a beta for which you can apply for a key for here.
