Ubisoft has revealed details for the upcoming DLC for "Rainbow Six: Siege." Moreover, the developer has also confirmed that more expansion content will be added as the game enters its second year.

"Rainbow Six: Siege" has just received its latest DLC, "Operation Red Crow." The expansion pack is the last for the current Season Pass of the game. However, Ubisoft has already confirmed that details on Year Two DLCs will be revealed before the year ends.

Speaking with PCGamesN, Anne Blondel, vice-president of live operations at Ubisoft, stated that Year Two content will be detailed as early as next month. The studio executive said, "I don't want to spoil, [the team] are really looking forward to revealing to the community. What I can say is Season 4 came out last weekend, patch 5.1 is [out now too] and we'll be announcing much more about year two in the weeks to come, but I would hate to spoil what they have in store for the game."

The statement is an additional confirmation for another Season Pass for the game. Previously, Ubisoft said, "The past year has been an incredible journey, and we are excited to have you join us for another full year of content!"

"Rainbow Six: Siege" launched in December last year and the new update is the last for current Season Pass holders, as Year One of the game ends on December 1st. Aside from the current "Operation Red Crow," other season DLC packs include "Operation Black Ice," "Operation Dust Line," and "Operation Skull Rain." Aside from game patches and improvements, the four DLCs brought four new maps, eight new operators, an assortment of new weapons and gadgets, new game modes and activities.

"Rainbow Six: Siege" is the thirteenth installment for the "Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six" franchise. It is currently available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
