Rainbow Six Siege Skull Rain Starts Tomorrow
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is about to get a new update this week called Skull Rain. To go along with the occasion, Ubisoft has revealed a new launch trailer for the update, which you can check out in the player below. The update goes live tomorrow.
Skull Rain features a new Favela map for players and two new BOPE operators: the Caveira and the Capitão. The Caveira operator is a ruthless interrogator, who uses a stealth technique called the Silent Step to sneak up on targets undetected. Meanwhile, the Capitão has a tactical crossbow that can fire lethal asphyxiating bolts and micro grenades at enemies. This weapon is great for sneak attacks. The Favela map is said to be the most destructible environment in the game to date.
The Skull Rain’s Favela map will be available for all players and Season Pass holders starting tomorrow, August 2. However, Season Pass holders for the game will instantly receive the new BOPE operators. Other players will have to wait to unlock the new operators until August 9. Then, they will be able to unlock the operators using Renown or R6 credits.
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege is available now for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC.
