What Is Crystal Guard?
Crystal Guard is the next season of Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege, also known as Y6S3 (Year 6, Season 3).
The update will be free to everyone who owns Rainbow Six Siege and is set to include plenty of changes and new content.
One of the biggest inclusion in the upcoming season is a brand new Operator known as Osa. Like many of the other operators, Osa will have a unique ability and playstyle.
As Osa, players will have a transparent and bulletproof Talon-8 Shield that can be deployed on floors, windows frames, or in door frames.
Crystal Guard will also feature a bunch of bug fixes and map reworks to Bank, Coastline, and Clubhouse. More details about the upcoming season of Rainbow Six Siege can be found on the official Ubisoft website.
