Operation Split Fire marks a significant new chapter for Rainbow Six Siege, introducing a new Operator, a top-tier competitive rank, and targeted map updates.
New Operator Noor
Noor joins Team Rainbow as the first Egyptian Operator. This new Defender is designed to counter shield-heavy strategies, utilizing the Horus Lance Launcher to fire piercing projectiles. These projectiles attach to surfaces and shields before emitting flames, creating new opportunities for area denial and site control through walls, floors, or ceilings.
Legend Division
Season 3 introduces Legend Division, a new competitive tier positioned above Champion. This rank is designed for Siege's most dedicated and skilled players, offering a greater challenge and a clearer distinction at the pinnacle of Ranked play.
Villa Map Update
Villa is the first map to receive a Targeted Map Update. Instead of a full rework, specific areas have been adjusted to foster new strategic opportunities and improve site selection variety. A relocated bomb site and permanent layout changes aim to bring fresh tactics while preserving the map's core identity.
Additional Season Content
Operation Split Fire also delivers a limited-time 3v3 Arcade mode for faster, lower-commitment matches. Modernized versions of Stadium Alpha, Stadium Bravo, House, Tutorials, and the Shooting Range are also included. Furthermore, Season 3 brings a range of major balancing updates affecting Operators, weapons, and gadgets to keep the meta evolving.
