Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is delivering a new map, new operators from a counter-terrorism unit, weapon skins and new gadgets with its new Operation Black Ice DLC. The Rainbow Six Siege Operation Black Ice expansion was initially set to arrive in January, but the new release date for the DLC is Feb. 2.
A new DLC trailer that leaked from Ubisoft Mexico was quickly taken down, but not before a screenshot was captured, which features a large yacht in some pretty treacherous and icy waters. According to reports from the Rainbow 6 forums on Reddit, there are more screenshots from the new DLC that have leaked. The latest images reveal the pair of operatives, Frost and Buck, of the new Canadian Task Force.
According to the images, Frost is a Defensive Operator features a unique ability known as "Welcome Mat," which is a "mechanical trap to incapacitate enemies." Next, Buck is an Attack Operator that features "Skeleton Key," which equips him with an under-barrel shotgun that attaches to his primary weapon, which according to PlayStation Lifestyle is either a C8-SFW assault rifle or CAMRS marksman rifle.
Frost and Buck are slated to be the first of eight new Operators to arrive in future DLCs. The first two Ops will be available to all Siege players by unlocking them for 25,000 Renown, or $4.99. Rainbow Six Siege Operation Black Ice arrives Feb. 2.
