Ubisoft has revealed details about the Winter event coming to Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege. Titled Snow Brawl, the event is returning to the game starting on December 16, and will go on until January 6. Check out the trailer below.
The Snow Brawl event involves a new capture the flag game mode where players use snowballs as their primary weapons. Players are also equipped with holiday-themed secondary gadgets as they play the game mode on the Chalet map. Players can take up to three hits before they are downed. However, the game mode features infinite respawns.
Snow Brawl features 12 playable operators: Dokkaebi, Grim, Sens, Rook, Vigil, Frost, Castle, and Thorn for the Blue Blades, or Ash, Blackbeard, Montagne, and Osa for the Orange Blizard.
The event also brings back the Snow Brawl Collection, which feature winter-themed cosmetics, like uniforms, headgear, and weapon skins. Snow Brawl bundles will be available through the in-game store, and one free Snow Brawl Collection pack will be gifted to players for just logging in during the event, along with an extra gift every week for completing weekly challenges.
