　　Rainbow Six Siege will be six years old in about three months, but the game is still going strong. Ubisoft has just released the Crystal Guard update two days ago, adding new operator Anja “Osa” Janković, an attacker who wields a transparent and bulletproof Talon-8 Shield that can be carried by Osa or deployed on floors or window frames, giving her a protective line of sight while she formulates a strategy. The Crystal Guard update also features map reworks for Clubhouse, Coastline, and Bank, and of course a plethora of fixes and tweaks.

　　The game recently had a limited-time Containment event inspired by the upcoming cooperative spin-off game Rainbow Six Extraction, now due to launch in January 2022 following the latest delay. Additionally, PC users whose configurations are equipped with GeForce RTX graphics cards can activate NVIDIA's Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS), which delivers up to 50% higher frame rates at 4K resolution when using the Performance mode. This allows even the least powerful GeForce RTX graphics card, the 2060, to exceed an average of 120 frames per second with maxed-out graphics settings.
