For the first time ever, R6 esports professional teams can access an official in-game data analytics tool designed to help improve player coaching and competitive analysis.
GRID, the in-game data platform, and Ubisoft, global games publisher behind Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six®, have announced the release of the Rainbow Six Siege Data Portal (R6DP), the first-ever data portal for R6 Esports professional teams. The portal will be available for professional teams in the BLAST R6 esports ecosystem, free of charge, in the coming weeks.
Last year, the two companies signed a multi-year deal, making GRID the first and exclusive Esports Live Data Platform for Rainbow Six Esports. This agreement enabled the ecosystem’s inaugural access to official data assets for commercial partners at the 2023 BLAST R6 Atlanta Major.
The R6DP allows teams to easily search, query, filter or download data from matches to enable data-driven talent evaluation, strategy analysis, and more. The system is easy-to-use, enables fully-automated ingestion and allows private data access through a secure application-based user interface.
Moritz Mauer, Founder & CEO of GRID, commented on the partnership: “Rainbow Six Siege is such a highly tactical game where in-game data access is critical for teams to employ the best strategies. We’re proud to be partnered with Ubisoft on their journey to create incredible esports experiences and enhance the competition through access to the official match data for their professional teams.”
David Parent, Senior Manager, Global Esports Business Development at Ubisoft, also commented: “Providing our professional teams with access to accurate, reliable data is a key step towards building a data-driven ecosystem for Rainbow Six Esports. We’re thrilled to partner with GRID on the establishment of official BLAST R6 data assets and we can’t wait to see our professional teams use the Rainbow Six Siege Data Portal to elevate their play.”
The announcement comes on the back of the record-breaking success of the Six Invitational in Sâo Paulo last month. The teams will get access to R6DP during the Stage 1 of the 2024 Season, leading into the upcoming BLAST R6 Manchester Major, May 16-26.
