The highly anticipated Year 9 Season 1 of Rainbow Six Siege is finally here, and it is packed with thrilling updates and new features.

For the first time a villain Operator, Deimos, joins the roster. Track down your enemies with his DeathMARK flying probe which reveals both a designated target and Deimos’ locations for a set of time, or until one gets eliminated...


But that's not all. With a focus on player protection and to ensure a fair and competitive gaming experience for all, this season brings improved anti-cheat measures, as well as ranked restrictions.


Attachments and ADS are receiving an upgrade to foster more tactical gameplay. Sights are being reorganized in four categories: iron sights, (x1), (x2.5) and (x3.5) with ADS bonuses to iron sights and (x1) sights. Other attachments are also receiving major updates, so get in the Shooting Range to try them all !


Shields have been revamped for a more balanced and immersive feel. Hip-fire is removed, and players will now be able to break through full-health barricades, melee pushback opponents, sprint, reload, trigger gadgets and free-look around, all while using their shield.

The long-awaited Inventory Management Menu is making its debut! Browse through your entire collection of cosmetics and customize operators with greater ease and efficiency. From cosmetics to loadouts, managing your gear has never been more seamless.
