This is the reveal of the upcoming Season update named ‘Operation Shadow Legacy’. And the spotlight holder for this season is our very own Splinter Cell’s Sam Fisher. Sam is going to be the next operator of the Rainbow Six Siege roster.

Sam Fisher in Rainbow Six Siege Teaser

The teaser gives us a quite a brief of an information about the upcoming features, but we are sure about the arrival of the stealth assassin as he makes a statement about his existence. And the gadget ‘Sticky camera’ (more like his sonar goggles) is the blessing for the Splinter Cell fans.

The tweet does created some confusion about the names that are being listed in the teaser, Sam Fisher and Zero. Zero could be the second operator from the upcoming season Shadow Legacy or it could be a code name for Sam Fisher as this name doesn’t quite fit in the roster along side the operators named Rook, Smoke, Tachanka, fuze n all.

On August 16th, we will have full reveal about Sam and Zero, and will also get to learn more about the upcoming season update. You can witness is yourself on the game’s official Twitch channel on this Sunday.

Its been years since we have seen Sam in action except for the cameo roles from Ghost Recon: Wildlands, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint and Far Cry: New Down. The last time we played as Sam was back in 2013 Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

The Full Reveal is scheduled on the upcoming Sunday, August 16th. Stay tuned for more details.
