Earlier today, Ubisoft revealed the first details of the upcoming Operation Para Bellum, the major update coming to Season 2 of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege Year Three. The new season will take players to Italy, adopting a full Italian setting while also introducing new operations, a new map, and a variety of other content, as per usual.
Operation Para Bellum will introduce two new Italian operators specialized in defense as well as a new map, which will be the 20th in the game. The new update will also introduce the Pick & Ban system, providing players with an extra layer of strategy between teams, as each side tries to counter their opponents’ picks during the banning phase. The full reveal of Year 3 Season 2 content for Rainbow Six: Siege will be made later this month during the Pro League Finals on May 19-20, so make sure to stay tuned for more information when that happens.
