On Dec. 1, Ubisoft looks to redefine the online FPS genre by releasing a title that encourages communication amongst teammates, emphasizes strategy over run-and-gun gameplay, and puts tactical gameplay at the forefront.
Operation Silent Hunt is a Metal Gear Solid series crossover season bringing a new permanent Operator, limited-time event, exclusive cosmetics, and more to Rainbow Six Siege.
Ubisoft are just mocking us at this point. They can bring us solid snake but they can't bring us sam Fisher
"Six Invitational Paris 2026 was a very different event from last year’s in Boston, but it carved its own, very French path."

Solid Snake is entering Rainbow Six Siege in Operation Silent Hunt kicking off in March! Check out the Year 11 roadmap now.
RB6 has some major problems though.
The waiting... oh my f god the waiting. Grab a book, you'll be able to read quite a few pages while you are playing... or rather WAITING.
The waiting during the round.... (because they arbitrarily made the decision to NOT have ANY modes with respawns)
The waiting between the rounds... because they decided you needed way too much time to get ready, and it also looks for more people... which means you might wait five minutes between rounds... and maybe it hangs and you're screwed 4 rounds into a match after playing for 5 minutes and waiting for 45 minutes...so about an hour down the drain.
Of course for games like this, you don't want to be down a man. One person leaving can destroy your team and make it impossible to win. Because of all the waiting, this can happen at any time. Also with only ONE person per LOADOUT TYPE, you all RACE to see who gets the loadout YOU WANT... when people don't get it.. guess what they do... moan, groan... and QUIT. Yep, you could be up 2-0 needing one more round for a victory, and someone takes the loadout of the best player, he quits, and then you lose.
The game needs MORE weapons, MORE gadgets, and MORE THEN ONE PERSON PER LOADOUT TYPE. If TWO people want to play as THERMITE, then ALLOW THEM. It's silly to pit people against each other for the loadouts.
Plus where the hell is the cover system?
Overall it's a fun game, but could be so much better.
Modes with respawns
Less rounds per match
More weapons/More attachments/more gadgets
More then one person per loadout
Cover system
People don't want to spend 70-80 percent or more of their time WAITING TO PLAY. They want to spend probably 90+ percent of the time playing. So they really need to work on that. Less rounds, respawns, and less bs between rounds that sucks your will to play another round.
