What is Included in Operation North Star?
The new season introduces Thunderbird as a new 3-speed, 1-armor defender with the ability to deploy healing gadgets around the map.
The next big change is the reworked version of the Favela map. The developers have tried to make it much suitable for defenders by replacing most of the destructible walls with unbreachable ones. Also, the matches in Favela is going to take place at night.
Some other balancing changes like removing bullet-holes, nerfing Melusi’s gadget, and improving Smoke’s gas grenades will be available during this season as well.
Cross-Play and Cross-Progression
During the recent Ubisoft Forward event, the developers behind Siege announced their plans for upcoming cross-play and cross-progression features to the game.
In the first phase, all players on PC, Stadia, and Luna will enjoy cross-play and cross-progression from June 30 this year.
The second phase will start earlier in 2022, when PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S players will get access to cross-play. On the other hand, cross-progression will launch on all platforms (PC + Consoles + Cloud).
Rainbow Six Siege is now available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC.
