This confirms that there will be four seasons in Year 4 – some expected Ubisoft to reduce this to three after some controversial operator releases across Year 3, but this doesn’t appear to be the case. Ubisoft is yet to share their Year 4 roadmap for Rainbow Six Siege, but we do know from the Year 4 Pass details that we’ll be getting eight operators as part of Year 4. The testing period usually runs for two weeks before the final update goes live on PC, so it’s likely that the Rainbow Six Siege Year 4 release date is March 5, 2019. The Grand Final of the Six Invitational 2019 takes place on February 17, so it’s likely that the first TTS of Year 4 will go live the following Tuesday on February 19. The Six Invitational 2019 is the next big event in the Siege esports calendar, so our best bet for TTS featuring Year 4 Season 1 content is just after that. Rainbow Six Siege’s upcoming Irish operator could be called Thorn and get a brand new weapon according to community interpretations of a developer Q&A. Typically, a new Operation is launched on Test Servers a few days after being revealed at a major Siege esports tournament. It’s become very easy to predict the launch date for each upcoming season of Rainbow Six Siege so we’re fairly confident we know when the fourth year of operators will commence. For example, Rainbow Six Siege is yet to feature Pakistan’s SSG, Australia’s SASR, Russia’s Alpha Group, Israel’s Sayeret Matkal, or Austria’s GEK Cobra units.Ĭharacters from previous Rainbow 6 games have had backgrounds in these special forces branches, so it seems inevitable that Year 4 will include at least one of these teams. The first and most obvious place to start is by looking at all of the CTUs currently in the game to see what major special forces groups are not listed. Ubisoft is yet to announce what nations will be represented in Year 4, but we do have a couple of clues to go on. Rainbow Six Siege Year 4 operatorsĮach new year of Rainbow Six Siege promises to add eight new operators across four seasons and counter terrorist units, most of which are based on real-life special forces teams like the GIGR and GROM. The same Resetera user who posted this also shared another image of the Trax gadget and a description of the two operators.

The leaked image purports to be of the Year 4 Season 1 main menu screen and would therefore show off two upcoming Australian operators. The second Year 4 leak should be taken with a good pinch of salt.
