00:00Operation Tenfold Pursuit is coming to Rainbow Six Siege on December 2nd, and the original

00:20EMP King himself, Thatcher, is getting a new gadget, the EGS Disruptor, and a new gun,

00:28the PMR-90A2 DMR. He's not the only one with that new hardware though, Capitao, Nook, and Hibana will

00:37all have the new DMR added to their loadouts. I'll catch you up on the big balancing pass,

00:43headed for the hard breachers and a few defenders to boot. Furthermore, the fortress map is fully

00:48reworked, modernized, and ready for ranked, with Skyscraper and Theme Park getting that modernized

00:54magic as well. Plus, a new and improved ranked matchmaking method, beefed up training playlists,

01:01and out there experiments in the testing grounds. There's a lot to like in Operation Tenfold Pursuit,

01:08and we haven't even mentioned the 10th anniversary celebrations. Let's talk Thatcher first.

01:17The rework of this attacking operator replaces his EMP grenade with the EGS Disruptor, a gadget that

01:24enables Thatcher to detect the defender's electronic devices, and project an electromagnetic pulse

01:31through any surface to temporarily knock them out. Simply line up some devices in the targeting circle

01:40of the handy view screen, check for the corner brackets to confirm your targets, and fire away

01:45to clear the field for your allies to make their move. When the EGS Disruptor pulse hits a target,

01:51it gives Thatcher two pieces of intel. One, it reveals which gadget it is, if you haven't already

01:57scouted it. Two, it shows how long the EMP effect will last, clearly outlining your window of opportunity

02:04to execute that hard breach, or get past Denarii's laser traps unscathed. This knowledge can give Thatcher

02:11and his teammates an extra edge, honing his support role even sharper. And the speed and precision of

02:18the EGS Disruptor means Thatcher can make a more targeted impact, more often, throughout the round.

02:25And speaking of impact, let me introduce you to the PMR-90A2, a new designated marksman rifle

02:32debuting on the attacking stage. As with other DMRs, this one packs a punch, downing enemies in a

02:39scant few shots, and blasting holes in soft surfaces to create advantageous lines of sight.

02:45Hibana, Nook, Capitao, and Thatcher will all be granted the PMR-90A2 for the first two weeks of the season

02:55through the battle pass, after which it will become part of their loadout for all players.

03:01Now buckle up, because it's time for a balancing breakdown, starting with Hibana.

03:07Recoil reduction for the Type 89 Assault Rifle, faster X-Kairos charge deployment, and detonation.

03:14More X-Kairos ammo in her pocket, and now she has Claymore's on her docket.

03:19Maverick. His breaching torch will no longer pause between cycles, making him more efficient

03:26in his little pyro schemes. And his loadout is expanding, to add frag grenades, and the

03:32Reaper MK2 machine pistol. Ace. Slow it down, hotshot. He's now a 1-speed 3-armor, and he can have some

03:40stun grenades as a treat. And finally, Thermite. One more exothermic charge for you, my good man,

03:47and a super shorty sidearm shotgun to boot. That's cute.

03:51But we're not done yet, because I don't want you to launch the new season on December 2nd,

03:57and see a castle barricade electrified, and think,

04:01hey man, why didn't Chris tell me that castle barricades could now be electrified?

04:04Because I did tell you. Just now!

04:07There's also a slight change to the way Mute's jammers work. Mute will now counter a few less gadgets,

04:13so his jammer radius is increasing, and he'll be a bit faster as a 2-speed 2-armor.

04:18This change also means that when Aruni's Surya Gates are EMP'd, you'll have to shoot them to turn

04:25them back on. Once the effect is over, instead of them coming back on automatically, don't ask me

04:30why I'm not a scientist. Next section. Maps. The fortress map is ready for prime time this season,

04:37having been both reworked and modernized. This means that there have been some renovations and

04:42bombsite relocations to make it more balanced, and you'll be seeing it in the ranked map pool

04:47from the get-go. There will also be improved lighting and textures, as well as added destructible

04:52elements, and this is true for Skyscraper and Theme Park, the other two modernized maps this season.

04:58There are a few more updates to dive into on the official Rainbow Six Siege website,

05:04including the new two-parameter ranked matchmaking system, the addition of AI allies,

05:09and Keras Legion bot enemies in the training playlists to help sharpen your regimen.

05:15And the new testing grounds playlists, coming in January to experiment with a choose-your-own-armor

05:20feature. Operation Tenfold Pursuit is coming on December 2nd, and block out your calendars

05:26for some 10th anniversary festivities in December. Details to follow. Now follow this channel for the

05:32latest on Rainbow Six Siege.
