Happy Holidays from the Rainbow Six Siege team! We have got a surprise for you!

The free Holiday Pack contains 1 random unowned Operator or a Bravo Pack if all Operators are already owned. To get your pack go to the shop and claim the “free gift” item. The in-game news bulletin should also direct you there.
We hope you enjoy and have a great time with us heading into your new year.

The festivities continue until January 6 and winter descends upon Siege as Attack and Defense sides cease to exist with only a free(ze) for all in the cold!

Celebrate the holidays the best possible way: spraying countless enemies in a minus-100 degree, Free For All-inspired event. In Permafrost, everyone is an opponent and there are infinite respawns. The pace starts fast and never stops, with the winner reaching 40 points first.

This year's game mode includes a festive new mechanic called Frozen Souls, where players get an extra points for snatching the soul off their opponent's corpse.
There's also a few changes to the Artic Workshop map. The landscape is covered with snow, the roof is gone, and the sniper posts, walls and barracks have all been decorated for the holidays.
