Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is an innovative shooter game available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. Despite the competition from other FPS titles, Rainbow Six Siege is still popular, and here’s how many people play it in 2022.

It wouldn’t be an overstatement to say that shooter games are some of the most popular games in the world. From Apex Legends and Call of Duty Warzone to Fortnite and Overwatch 2, the most prevalent titles out there belong to this genre.

In terms of pure shooting experience, many believe Rainbow Six Siege is better than the AAA games mentioned above. Moreover, all Operators have unique abilities and your bullets even interact with the environment.

If you’ve ever wondered about the popularity of Rainbow Six Siege, here’s how many people play Rainbow Six Siege in 2022.

Rainbow Six Siege monthly and active player count

In November 2022 throughout the past 30 days, an average of 25,799 people played Rainbow Six Siege daily. According to Steam Charts, the game witnessed a peak player count of 28,260 in October 2022 but this number has been steadily decreasing in 2022.

Do note that the numbers on Steam Charts only include PC players and due to its cross-play status, Rainbow Six Siege has a fairly huge community on consoles as well.

Obviously, Rainbow Six Siege isn’t at its best right now. To put things into perspective, the all-time peak of concurrent players on Steam is over 199,000 and April 2020 was the last time when we saw more than 100,000 people playing the game at the same time.

Is Rainbow Six Siege dead?

No, even in 2022, Rainbow Six Siege has a massive community that includes thousands of active players. The developers are still rolling out new seasons and improving the anti-cheat software. The esports scene is equally captivating and some of the most talented esports athletes in the world like Kantoraketti are a part of it.

All in all, Rainbow Six Siege might not be as popular as it once was but it is still going strong in 2022. A mobile version is in the works as well, and it should help in taking the franchise forward.
