The Six Invitational is an annual competition for Ubisoft's Rainbow Six Siege. Since its first edition, it has pitted the best teams in the world against each other, seeking the title of World Champion and a prize estimated at a few million dollars.

The first edition took place for the Xbox One and PC platforms with six teams competing against each other on each platform, so in 2017 there are two world champions, the Elevate, who defeated the Team Vitality in the Xbox One final, and the Continuum, who defeated the eRa Eternity on the PC.
