According to the rating service GitHyp, the popularity of Rainbox Six: Siege is largely due to the successful implementation model of the title. It combines a relatively low price threshold ($ 15 for the basic version) and regular additions to the game of new content available through season passes.
GitHyp suggests that in the future Rainbox Six: Siege will be able to compete in popularity with Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, although Valve’s shooter so far simultaneously gathers 4-5 times more people than its Canadian competitor.
