<p>The latest expansion pack for <a href="http://ift.tt/1s3YMEz">Rainbow Six Siege</a>, Operation Skull Rain, and an accompanying update are now live on all platforms, and we have the full patch notes.</p>
<p dir="ltr">As revealed recently, the <a href="http://ift.tt/2a91yks">main components of Skull Rain are two new Operators and a map</a> set in Brazil. The Operators come from Brazil&#8217;s BOPE unit; one has a special crossbow, while the other can sneak up on enemies and interrogate them. The <a href="http://ift.tt/2avikhX">map is the game&#8217;s &quot;most destructible&quot; one yet</a>, according to Ubisoft. It&#8217;s free to everyone, while the Operators are only available to season pass holders for the next week. After that, anyone can purchase them with in-game currency.</p>
<p dir="ltr">On the improvement side, this update makes it so that players&#8217; limbs no longer clip through walls, inadvertently giving away their position. The kill cam has been updated to more accurately show what occurred, and the pre-round tactical map now offers additional detail. Other <a href="http://ift.tt/2avikhX">quality-of-life changes</a> include a way to see your teammates&#8217; loadouts on the waiting screen, the ability to pick who spawns with the bomb defuser, a better compass, and a streamlined HUD.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Also new in this update are weapon skins, a weapon attachment, a Tactical Realism custom game mode, and a way to surrender Ranked matches. In an effort to make the season pass more valuable, those who have purchased it now receive a 10 percent discount on all in-game-shop content. This applies toward purchases with Renown and R6 Credits.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s also a wide variety of bug fixes, addressing everything from floating turrets to players being able to shoot after being downed. A complete list of these changes, along with all of the additions and tweaks in this update, can be seen on the official <a href="http://ift.tt/2a91yks">Rainbow Six website</a>.</p>
<p>As part of the update&#8217;s unveiling, we learned recently that Rainbow Six Patriots&#8211;the game that was in development prior to Siege&#8211;was <a href="http://ift.tt/2apKiHS">canceled in order to focus on a long-term, sustainable game</a> with competitive multiplayer.</p>
