With the anticipated major update, the Rainbow Six franchise is poised to extend its remarkable longevity.
In a recent Steam post dated February 17, 2025, Ubisoft introduced a new operator, Aurora, who can deploy bulletproof doors. Alongside Aurora, a new elite skin for operator Aruni and a new reputation system that evaluates player behavior during a season will be introduced. These features will debut in Season 1 of its 10th year, Operation Prep Phase, set for release on March 4, 2025, as part of the game's 10th anniversary celebration.
Given the timing between Season 10's launch and the Rainbow Six Siege X showcase, it's anticipated that the major upgrades will be implemented on live servers following the event.
