This means more data for professional teams.

Ubisoft and GRID are preparing to launch the Rainbow Six Siege Esports Data Portal (R6DP). The portal will be available to professional teams competing in the BLAST R6 esports ecosystem.

This will be the first data platform for Ubisoft's game and will be available in the coming weeks. According to the company, the R6DP will be free of charge.

The name of the portal will be R6DP, and according to the company's statement, it "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."

Teams will have access to R6DP during Stage 1 of the new season with the aim of qualifying for May's Major in Manchester. Teams are already competing with regional leagues starting last week and this week.

GRID is a data platform with experience in other games such as League of Legends, VALORANT, CS2, Dota 2, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) and R6. The partnership between GRID and Ubisoft for R6 now extends to R6DP after an agreement about the Esports Live Data Platform. This agreement allowed the ecosystem access to official data for commercial partners at BLAST R6 Major Atlanta 2023.
