The teaser for the new season featured a simple background with a scary eye and a skull. This does not give fans a lot of insight into the season. Regardless, players can expect a very lethal Operator to come to Rainbow Six Siege with Dread Factor.

Ubisoft has promised a lot of content for Year 8 Season 2 on the official Siege roadmap. These included:

  • Swedish Operator

Operator tweaks like the Grim buff will also improve his pickrate in Ranked 2.0 mode, as his gadget can use a few tweaks. The Frost rework is also something to look out for, as her traps will affect the enemy's movement once they pick themselves up. However, the self-revive upon hitting her Welcome Mat is a major change.

Ubisoft has also promised a map rework with the Consulate. This change is one that fans have been anticipating for a while as they have shared their thoughts on the map while playing ranked mode. Rainbow Six Siege Operation Dread Factor is set to bring all these changes into play, as mentioned in the roadmap.


Readers can expect Ubisoft to list all the details regarding Operation Dread Factor in the official reveal. Fans will learn everything regarding the season, including the upcoming Operator and the reworks.

Until then, players can enjoy Operation Commanding Force with Brava and play the all-new Ranked 2.0.
