Rainbow Six Siege Year 9 Season 2

Season 2 of Year 9 in Rainbow Six Siege is just around the corner, and we've gathered everything we know so far.

Ubisoft mentioned that, since its beta launch, a lot of players have been engaging in buying and selling skins with other players in the Siege Marketplace. With the upcoming Season 2, they have confirmed that the Siege Marketplace will be fully launched and available for all players to use.

Ubisoft's team is doubling down on their efforts to address cheating in Siege. In Season 2, they will be focusing on the first iteration of an improved ban enforcement measure on Steam (PC), making it more difficult for cheaters to return to the game once banned.

As this will be a new addition to their anti-cheat ecosystem, they are breaking down the feature into several iterations, with the first part scheduled for Season 2.

Operator balancing is crucial to maintaining the competitiveness of Siege. As previously hinted, Ubisoft have focused on the Defense side and will introduce Operator balancing updates to both Fenrir and Solis (Part 1) in the upcoming Season. The second part of Solis' update is currently scheduled for Season 3.

Stay tuned for the Year 9 Season 2 Reveal coming up on May 26, at 6pm CET.
