Following the fantastic Six Invitational 2021<\/a> tournament, Ubisoft has announced the next Rainbow Six Siege Major, which will take place in Mexico. Just like the Six Invitational 2021 which took place in Paris earlier this year, the Six Major August 2021 will be a LAN event but without external media or a live audience. Here’s what we know so far about the Six Major August 2021.<\/p>\n

Six Major August 2021 location & safety<\/h2>\n

In a new post<\/a> on the Ubisoft website, the publisher officially announced the location of the Six Major August 2021 as Mexico. That’s a huge country, and no additional information on the exact venue has been revealed at the time of writing.<\/p>\n

Not that it really matters which venue the Six Major August 2021 will take place in, as there will be no live audience or external media allowed at the LAN.<\/p>\n

Ubisoft explains the safety precautions of this LAN event: “Following health organizations and local authorities’ guidelines, the Six Major will be a LAN event with no on-site audience and follow strict sanitary measures. Our teams are hard at work finalizing event details, and we look forward to sharing more information about the city and venue soon.<\/p>\n

“With the well-being of pro players, staff, and partners as our main priority, we remain steadfast in our commitment to deliver gold-standard safety measures. We have been closely monitoring the evolution of the pandemic around the world as well as local regulations and travel restrictions. We will continue to monitor the ongoing situation for changes and to ensure appropriate actions are taken.”<\/p>\n

The prize pool is set at $500,000 with the exact distribution currently unknown but we expect the winner to get the lion’s share.<\/p>\n
