Rainbow Six Siege's Next Update, Operation Blood Orchid, Releases Later This Month
Three new Operators and a new map are soon coming to Rainbow Six Siege through its next expansion titled Operation Blood Orchid. While Ubisoft hasn't given any details about the Operators, it's been revealed that the map will be set in Hong Kong.
The three Operators are available to season pass owners as of August 29, whereas everyone else can buy them with in-game currency by September 5. The map, on the other hand, is free immediately on August 29 to all players.
This update launches on August 29 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Ubisoft announced that a livestream during Gamescom will reveal more about the update, which is scheduled for August 26 at 10:15 a.m. PT on Ubisoft's Twitch channel.
