These challenges are time-consuming but are not overly difficult, making the skin an attainable reward for dedicated players.

This guide will detail how to acquire the free Sledge skin in Rainbow Six Siege X.

Rainbow Six Siege X: How to get Sledge skin

To unlock the free Sledge skin, you must participate in the brand-new Dual Front mode and successfully complete three distinct challenges within it.

Understanding Dual Front Mode

Dual Front is a new permanent 6v6 game mode in Rainbow Six Siege X where teams simultaneously attack and defend. Each team has its own sector to protect while also pushing to conquer the enemy's sector.

• Objectives: The primary objective on offense is to claim the enemy's sector by planting a Sabotage Kit and defending it until a countdown finishes. Once this is done, your objective updates, leading to further sectors and eventually the enemy HQ. Simultaneously, your defensive team must be vigilant, as the enemy team is on a similar offensive track against your sectors.
• Gameplay: This mode features a large map (currently "District") with two parallel lanes (offensive and defensive) connected by a neutral zone. Players have unlimited respawns and can switch Operators after dying, allowing for dynamic adaptation.
• Side Objectives: The neutral zone can also host side objectives, such as hostage extractions, which, when completed, can grant buffs to your team.
