The first update, <a href=\"https:\/\/rainbow6.ubi.com\/siege\/en-US\/updates\/velvetshell\/index.aspx\">Operation Velvet Shell<\/a>, will add two characters that screw with the game&#8217;s established strategies via magical powers.

The game already has 28 character classes, and the developers plan on adding eight more in year two, leaving players with at least a couple more years of collecting virtual shooter men. Since Ubisoft is already leaning on superpowers for their newest operator additions, how long will it be before characters from For Honor start showing up in Rainbow Six Siege like Blizzard&#8217;s cross-promotional efforts? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rainbow Six Siege&#8217;s Year Two is about to start.
