LONDON, UK15TH MARCH, 2022 — Today, Ubisoft announced that Demon Veil, the first season of Rainbow Six Siege’s Year 7, is now available on PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, Windows PC including on Xbox Game Pass, Ubisoft+, Ubisoft’s subscription service, Amazon Luna, and Stadia.* This new season brings new Japanese Operator Azami, a Team Deathmatch game mode, and a new map later in the season amongst other gameplay updates. Players can try out the Team Deathmatch mode alongside Rainbow Six Siege for free from 17th March to 24th March.

 
In Demon Veil, players will discover a brand-new Defender: Azami. Equipped with the game-changing Kiba Barrier gadget, her throwable canisters deploy an expandable material that solidifies into a bulletproof surface, which allows her to quickly repair holes in walls and floors, providing a more mobile and versatile defensive approach. In addition, Emerald Plains will be the first new map added to Rainbow Six Siege in three years. Players can explore this map set in Ireland soon after season launch.

 
Demon Veil brings a new game mode, Team Deathmatch, created to explore the perfect environment for players to warm up before competitive matches, as well as offer a more casual gameplay experience within Rainbow Six Siege. Team Deathmatch is a permanent addition to Rainbow Six Siege and will be a great introduction for new players to get a feel for the Operators.

 
Additional updates coming with Demon Veil include:
 

  • Match Replay for console players
  • Phone number requirement to play Ranked
  • Goyo and Valkyrie balancing updates
  • Exclusive Elite skin for Nomad
  • Attacker Repick
  • New R6Fix Incentive Program

Players who purchase the Premium Year Pass will also unlock 20 extra Tiers out of 100, receiving rewards quicker.

About Rainbow Six Siege

Alongside a thriving professional esports scene and a community of over 80 million registered players, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege puts players in the middle of a fast-paced, ever-evolving multiplayer experience grounded in the selection of unique Operators.
 
Using the right mix of tactics and destruction, Rainbow Six teams engage their enemies in sieges, where both sides have exclusive skills and gadgets at their disposal. Defenders prepare by transforming the environments around them into modern strongholds, while attackers use recon drones to gain intel for carefully planning their assault. With access to dozens of Operators inspired by real world counter-intelligence agents from around the globe, players can choose exactly how they want to approach each challenge they encounter. Through the constant addition of new Operators and maps that add to the depth of both strategy and combat, the unpredictability of each round of Rainbow Six Siege sets a new bar for intensity and competition in gaming.
