Today, Immortals announced its entry into the professional Rainbow Six: Siege scene, as it has acquired a team from Brazil to compete in the Rainbow Six: Siege Pro League under the Immortals brand.
The acquisition of the Brazilian Rainbow Six: Siege team by Immortals marks the organization's first expansion into the Latin American esports scene and is a part of a comprehensive deal Immortals has agreed to with Rainbow Six: Siege publisher Ubisoft. Immortals' Rainbow Six: Siege team will continue to operate out of Sao Paulo for the Pro League.
The Immortals' Rainbow Six: Siege roster consists of the following players including:
- Jaime Pereira "Cyb3r" Ramos Júnior
- Matheus "Px" Freire Mesquita
- Daniel Pinto "Novys" Coelho Novy
- Diogo Fernandes "D1OGO" De Souza Vieira
- Leone Kayque "oNe" de oliveira
Lucas "yuuK" Rodrigues will lead the Immortals roster in the world of professional Ranbow Six: Siege as the team's coach.
“We are thrilled to enter the Brazilian esports scene. The Brazilian market is characterized by intensely passionate fans, great esports brands and events, and highly skilled players, which makes it an ideal market for our organization to target and prioritize. We look forward to competing in the Rainbow Six: Siege Pro League and making a mark in Brazil for years to come," said Immortals CEO Noah Winston.
“As we prepare for this year’s Rainbow Six: Siege Pro League in Brazil, the team is excited to work with Immortals to develop a unique brand identity that will appeal to esports fans all across Brazil," said Managing Director of Ubisoft Latin America Bertrand Chaverot. "Brazilian esports teams hold an undying dedication among their fans, and we believe this partnership will lead to an exciting Pro League season."
Fans will be able to support the team with Immortals branded in-game cosmetic items, such as a charm and weapon skin, being made available by Ubisoft.
The team will be looking to make their home region and new organization proud, as the roster will be competing in the Pro League that will be returning to Brazil this Fall at the Jeunesse Arena (Olympic Park) in Rio de Janeiro on November 17th and 18th.
