Rainbow Six Siege DLC delayed to February

Operation Black Ice now begins in February

Rainbow Six Siege's first season of downloadable content — Operation Black Ice — has been pushed back a month. For Season Pass holders, the content pack will now release on February 2nd. Ubisoft confirmed the month delay on Twitter.

Fans are taking it about as well as you'd expect.

Ah, happy New Year, everyone!

As a reminder, the first content pack will include two operators from the Canadian Joint Task Force 2 counter-terrorism unit, a new map, and a handful of new weapon skins. Of course, "gameplay upgrades" are also included, though we don't have specifics. We're not sure how this delay will impact the release of future DLC for Rainbow Six Siege.
