The final day of the Six Invitational is always a thrilling moment for Rainbow Six Siege fans, as it's when Ubisoft unveils major announcements about the game. This year was no exception, with the exciting reveal of Rauora, the latest attack operator hailing from New Zealand. Her unique gadget, the DOM launcher, adds a strategic layer to the gameplay. This bulletproof shield, deployable only in doorways, can be destroyed by explosives. It features a trigger that can be activated by any player, but the time it takes to open varies: a swift one second for attackers, and a longer three seconds for defenders. This difference could be pivotal in scenarios where the defuser has been planted, potentially turning the tide of the match.

Alongside her innovative gadget, Rauora introduces a new weapon to the Siege arsenal: the Reaper MK2, a fully automatic pistol equipped with a red dot sight and an enlarged magazine. For her primary weapon choices, players can opt for either the M249 LMG or the 417 marksman rifle, offering versatile combat options.
Enthusiasts can look forward to trying out Rauora on the test servers starting next week. However, it will take a bit longer for her to make her way to the live version of the game.
