Rainbow Six Siege will be kicking off Year Two with a trip to sunny Ibiza, in ‘Operation Velvet Shell’. A brief trailer (below) takes a look at some of the villas, bars, and ruins that’ll be part of the upcoming Coastline map.
The video concludes with the news that a proper reveal of Velvet Shell will be coming up in early February. So you can probably expect a release date around about that same time.
Coastline will be a PvE and PvP map with daytime and nighttime variations. The day will offer “a hazy afternoon on a hot summer day after a long night out” (except with terrorists and shooting, I guess), while the night will bring “an effervescent night ambiance with neon lights of bars and open-air parties” (except with terrorists and … you get the idea).
