Rainbow Six Siege: Operation Para Bellum Operators, Gadgets, And More Highlighted In New Video
Operation Para Bellum is coming for Rainbow Six Siege players, but there is still a bit of time before it arrives. However, Ubisoft has been kind enough to give gamers the scoop in a form of some rather revealing footage.
In the new video from the studio, we get a look at not only the new map (Villa), but also the two operators (Alibi and Maestro) coming to the game. The first new operator, Alibi, utilizes holograms. Need we say more? Okay, we will. Alibi is a specialist when it comes to infiltration, using three holograms as decoys that help mark and distract the opposition. Maestro, a surveillance expert, can set up cameras to assist team members. Oh, and they shoot lasers. Check out all of the glory that is inbound in the video below:
The new operation will also be bringing a few other goodies along for the ride. The “Pick & Ban” system will allow player to ban a specific Operator that could potentially destroy the team’s strategy. This will certainly have some interesting results when it comes to competitive play. Also being added when Operation Para Bellum arrives are the following:
- Deployable Bullet Proof Cameras
- New Counter Defuser Animation
- Dropshotting Adjustments
- Weapon Sight Misalignment Adjustments
- New Observation Tool Management
- Operator Speed Adjustments
- Echo Buff
- Clubhouse Map Buff
For those not in the know on what Rainbow Six Siege is all about, here’s a bit more on the title:
“Rainbow Six Siege is an exciting, new approach to the first-person shooter experience that puts tactical combat and masterful destruction at the center of the action. Lead your team of unique, counter-terrorist Rainbow operators through tense and thrilling combat scenarios, and achieve victory through smart preparation and strategic improvisation.
KEY FEATURES:
-THE RULES OF SIEGE: Five versus Five. Attack versus Defend. Infiltrate versus Fortify. Team-based strategy meets intense, tactical combat.
