Rainbow Six Siege is in its fifth season now and updates are still being pushed out frequently for small technical errors and slight visual tweaks. That's the name of the game in the latest update Y5S1.1, with numerous fixes for sound effect-related issues and minor graphical inconsistencies in the PC, PS4, and Xbox One versions of the game.
There's nothing in the way of balancing or changes to the overall meta, so this latest update is likely only going to interest you if you're been bugged by duplicated walking effects or issues with pulling out your shield when playing as certain operators.
