The first of Rainbow Six Siege’s Year 2 content is now available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. Much like the game’s plethora of updates that have come before it, Operation Velvet Shell adds a new map, two operators, and a load of new customisation options.

The new Coastline map - set on the sunny isle of Ibiza - is free for everyone to enjoy, while only season pass holders are granted immediate access to the two operators, Mira and Jackal. Everyone else will be able to unlock the new operators with Renown or R6 Credits from next week.
You can see the new operators and in action on the Coastline map in the trailer below:
  • “Mira has proven her strength and endurance in tactical situations, but her best asset is her technical expertise. Her specialty is creating Black Mirrors, nearly indestructible horizontal one-way windows that can be punched into barricades or destructible walls. Combined with the Vector 45 ACP and ITA12L as her primary weapons, enemies can rapidly go from ‘spotted’ to ‘dead.’”
  • “Jackal has developed his expertise in tracking down High Value Targets and intercepting narcotics shipments with the G.E.O.s. Equipped with the C7E and PDW9 as primary weapons, Jackal can also activate his Eyenox Model III headset to track enemy footprints. The more recent the prints, the ‘hotter’ they’ll appear in Jackal’s view, so if you see bright red bootprints, there’s likely an enemy nearby!”
 
As well as a new map and operators, Velvet Shell will also introduce a revamped “navigation interface” which makes news, boosters and player challengers much more accessible.
