The new game mode, Dual Front, which features the massive District map and a 6v6 format, will not be available in Siege X on Xbox One or PS4. Unfortunately, the specifications of these older consoles will not support the new mode.

Siege X, due to its major graphical overhaul, has higher system requirements compared to Rainbow Six Siege up until Year 10 Season 1 Operation Prep Phase. This change has followed the extremely controversial removal of the Vulkan API and the implementation of DirectX 12 as the only API for Ubisoft's premier shooter.
