International gameplay and where to watch
Unlike the 2020 season, this year has a slightly different format. The Rainbow 6 ANZ team have put together a video to explain the new format:
In this video, the team explain that 2021 will feature three stages and the chance to play internationally. The three stages span throughout the year and teams accumulate points across the seasons. The top teams from the Oceanic Nationals will compete during a season finals LAN, where a $25,000 prize pool is up for grabs.
