There’s a big new patch planned for release this week for Rainbow Six: Siege that brings the game up to version 2.3. It adds a whole host of fixes and highly requested balance changes. The patch is set to improve ranked play experience.
The patch is due for release on March 30 for the PC and is expected to deploy across both PS4 and Xbox One platforms on or after April 5.
The patch will be the last big update for the game before its developers move on to Season 2 of ranked play.
Here’s what’s in store:
- Frost’s shotgun has reduced range
- Buck’s Skeleton Key now does way more environmental damage
- SMG-11 recoil increased
- Spawn locations tweaked to reduce spawn kills
- Hit Registration Improvements
- Lag compensation tweaked to favour low-ping players
