Rainbow Six Siege update delayed

Operation Deep Freeze was the fourth and final season for Rainbow Six Siege Year 8. Operation Deep Freeze has been one of the highly anticipated updates to Rainbow Six Siege. 

We have decided to postpone the release of Rainbow Six Siege’s Year 8 Season 4, Operation Deep Freeze for further testing to ensure the best possible experience for players.

We’ll share details on the new date as soon as we can.

While there is no official launch date for the new update, we have made an educated guess based on some recent announcements.

What’s new in Operation Deep Freeze?

The new update adds a new map, a new operator, Tubarão, and several operator balance changes to the game. The chilly new operator is the theme of the new operation - Deep Freeze - as well as the location of the new map.

Tubarão can freeze and overchill areas of the map, which slows oncoming enemies as well as freezes enemy equipment. The operator is a defensive one and adds a lot of versatility with his equipment. It will be very interesting to see how the community as well as the esports scene adds Tubarão to their compositions. 

The new map - Lair - is a multi-level map with several strategic entries and exits. There are three different levels on this map and each level has a different theme, adding to the map’s unique nature.
