Operation Split Fire is now available in Rainbow Six Siege on PlayStation, Xbox and PC. Ubisoft’s autumn operation introduces Noor, permanently changes Villa and adds new content rolling out through the season in official post. Rainbow Six Siege page covers the game affected by the update.
Noor arrives alongside a new Villa layout
Noor is an Egyptian defender equipped with the Horus Lance Launcher. The device projects flames that can target enemy shields and nearby destructible objects. Ubisoft has not provided figures for damage, range or effect duration, so the launcher’s balance impact cannot yet be assessed precisely.
Villa’s changes are permanent. The Living Room/Library area moves from the first floor to the basement, and the map’s wider layout is also evolving. Players who rely on established rotations and defensive setups will need to rebuild their plans around the new landmarks.
Kali and Dokkaebi receive gameplay changes, while Lion, Echo and Kapkan get lighter adjustments. The available information does not establish how these updates will affect their position in competitive play.
Arcade 3v3 leads the mid-season additions
Arcade 3v3 introduces smaller teams and faster encounters. Ubisoft lists Champion rank, ShieldGuard Secure Platform and 2FA activation among the requirements connected to access, but does not specify the exact role of each condition.
The Legend Division ranked playlist is planned for mid-season. The first dated event is Wasteland Circuit, scheduled from September 23 to October 13. Doktor’s Curse will return for Halloween with Mute, Grim and Hibana in its roster, although Ubisoft has not announced its launch date.
Training areas and several maps receive visual updates
Stadium Alpha, Stadium Bravo and House are receiving visual overhauls. The Shooting Range and tutorials are also being updated, which affects both newcomers and players who use these spaces to prepare for matches.
Access remains unchanged while the schedule stays partial
Rainbow Six Siege remains available on PlayStation, Xbox and PC through Ubisoft Store, Steam and Epic Games Store. Ubisoft+ is also mentioned. The publisher’s post does not specify a price or edition details, while operation overview post remains the reference for the full schedule and the new modes’ access requirements.
Noor, the redesigned Villa and the operation’s initial adjustments are available now. The detailed Arcade 3v3 rules, Legend Division’s exact date and Doktor’s Curse’s return date remain unconfirmed.
