Ubisoft has announced a temporary price drop for all Year 1 operators in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege until March next year.
You'll often see Ubisoft offering free weekends for Rainbow Six Siege, usually accompanied by a discounted price for those thinking of purchasing the game in the same period. This time, they're doing something a bit different.
Starting today at 11am EST (3pm GMT), the price of Year 1 operators has been reduced from 600 R6 Credits/25,000 Renown to 360 R6 Credits/15,000 Renown. The Year 1 operators are Frost, Buck, Valkyrie, Blackbeard, Capitao, Caveira, Hibana, and Echo. The offer will end on March 4, 2019.
There is currently no plan to do the same with Year 2 operators.
If you're wondering if they're worth it, you can check out our guide that asks, which Rainbow Six Siege operators are the best?

In 2021, she was offered a full-time position on the PC Gamer team where she takes every possible opportunity to talk about World of Warcraft and Elden Ring. When not writing guides, most of her spare time is spent in Azeroth—though she's quite partial to JRPGs too. One of her fondest hopes is to one day play through the ending of Final Fantasy X without breaking down into a sobbing heap. She probably has more wolves in Valheim than you.
