Rainbow Six Siege recently received an update that brought the new season, Operation Crystal Guard. The new season added a brand new operator called Osa, who can deploy shields on the attack for vision and cover. The launch of a new season also means tons of bugs, so this update is needed to squash some of them.
One major issue where the mouse cursor remains stuck on the screen has been fixed in the latest update. This issue is very distracting for a first-person shooter game, especially during gunfights. Another fix is for the MMR Rollback pop-ups that appear after completing a match.
