Rainbow Six Siegeis gearing up for the release of its ninth year, whichUbisoftwill be kicking off with its very first season, Operation Deadly Omen.

The new season will once again bring with it a plethora of bug fixes, balance adjustments, and new content for fans to dive into. Most notable is the inclusion of a deadly new operator known as Deimos. Ubisoft describes Deimos as “one of the original pillars of Rainbow Six and now one of its most ardent detractors.”

Even die-hard fans of Starfield are admitting that the missions are “stupid.”

Deimos will be equipped with two primary weapons for players to choose from, the AK-74M and the M590A1 Shotgun. As for Deimos' secondary weapon, he’s kitted out with the powerful .44 Vendetta. Both his health and speed are marked as 2 out of 3 stars, but what makes this new operator special is his unique Deathmark Tracker.

The Deathmark Tracker is a miniature flying probe that seeks out a chosen target and reveals their location to the player. Unfortunately, the downside to the Deathmark Tracker is that it also reveals Deimos' location to the enemy. During this process, Deimos will only be equipped with his .44 Vendetta, so you better get the job done quickly.
