Rainbow Six Siege: Operation Black Ice DLC released for free

Ubisoft released first major update for Rainbow Six Siege.  Operation Black Ice brings one new Yacht map, in which a luxury yacht hits an iceberg in the arctic Baffin Bay and Rainbow is sent to secure it.

Operation Black Ice also adds two new Operators from Canada’s Joint Task Force 2 counterterrorism unit, Frost and Buck. Frost, a Defender, comes equipped with a mechanical leg trap that’s undetectable by electronics scanners. Buck’s assault rifle carries a “Skeleton Key” underbarrel shotgun, letting this new Attacker quickly breach and switch to close-range combat. Season Pass holders get instant access to Frost and Buck with a seven-day period of exclusivity, while all players can unlock them with Renown or R6 Credits when that period is over on February 9.

The update also adds new weapon skins and a Spectator Camera for all platforms, letting an 11th player join and switch between a tactical overhead view, a free-cam view and a first-person view.
