Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege will be free this weekend starting from August 24 and until August 27. A full reveal is planned for the 26th August so in the meantime enjoy the teaser trailer below... Operation Blood Orchid is now targeting a September 5 release.
As for weaponry, Lesion will be sporting the T-5 SMG and SIX12 SD as his primary weapons with the Q-929 as a secondary weapon. If you do end up playing during the free weekend, your progress will automatically transfer over to the full game if you do end up purchasing it at 50% off from August 4th to September 4th.
"The free weekend is a great time to get into Siege and learn some of the basics before the tentative September 5 launch of Operation Blood Orchid, the biggest update for Rainbow Six Siege since its launch. We've got some tips on how to run the new Operators and make your presence felt when the new content hits", Watters said.
Originally set for an August 29 release, the expansion will first arrive to PC's Technical Test Server before its official release date sometime in early September. The expansion will also introduce three new Operators in the form of Ying and Liu Tze Long from Hong Kong, and Ela from Poland's counter-terrorism unit, GROM. Three new operators will be exclusive to season pass holders for a week, before becoming available to purchase for everyone with in-game currency or real money.
