Rainbow Six Siege Year 11 Roadmap 2026: Released and Upcoming
A current-season guide to the Year 11 roadmap. Released features, live events and future plans are kept separate so you can see what is available now.
In this guide
Operation Split Fire is the current Year 11 season. Noor and Villa’s targeted update have released. Ubisoft’s 23 September roadmap still lists Legend Division and Secure Platform as scheduled for midseason; Season 4 remains planned.
Where Year 11 stands on 7 October
| Area | Status | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Operation Split Fire | Released 1 September | Noor, Villa changes, balancing and modernized maps are part of the current season. |
| Wasteland Circuit | 23 September–13 October | A limited event with its own closing date. |
| Legend Division | Scheduled for midseason in the latest roadmap | Do not describe a planned playlist as already available. |
| ShieldGuard Secure Platform | Scheduled for midseason; Legend first | Keep these requirements separate from a claim that every existing playlist requires them. |
| Season 4 | Scheduled | Names, dates and implementation may change. |
Operation Silent Hunt: the March release
Operation Silent Hunt launched Year 11 with a crossover-heavy but gameplay-relevant package. Solid Snake joined as an Attack Operator, the TACIT .45 entered the weapon pool, and Siege received new modernized maps: Oregon, Villa and Coastline.
Season 1 also introduced the new seasonal structure. Ubisoft described Year 11 seasons as having four updates released every three weeks, alternating major balancing updates with smaller balancing updates. Season 1's meta target focused on entry-fragging and roaming roles.
Year 11 opened with a high-profile Attack Operator crossover.
A semi-automatic pistol with an integrated suppressor theme.
Modernized map work continued the Siege X visual and destruction push.
Early small-mode testing arrived through the Arcade playlist.
Operation System Override: the June release
Operation System Override is the current released Year 11 season. Ubisoft's season page describes it as a major content update built around Ranked Overhaul 3.0 and Calypso Casino, while Dokkaebi receives a remaster with Jegeo Payload and brings the XK23 assault rifle into focus.
The season also changes how Ranked maps rotate. The map pool uses Pro League maps, showcased maps and seasonal maps, with Calypso Casino initially showcased while Villa, Skyscraper, Theme Park and Kanal moved out at season start.
| Feature | What changed | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Ranked 3.0 | Ranked received a major overhaul. | Returning players should relearn placements, map pool logic and progression habits. |
| Calypso Casino | New competitive map inspired by Rainbow Six: Vegas. | Verticality, new routes and drone paths affect prep and attack planning. |
| Dokkaebi remaster | Jegeo Payload changed her role and counterplay discussion. | She became one of the loudest Y11S2 balance topics. |
| XK23 | Dokkaebi, Rauora and Sens can use the rifle. | Support attackers gain a more direct weapon comfort option. |
| Trial Operators | Six operators rotate weekly for free access. | Newer or returning players can test roles before buying operators. |
| Training updates | Clear House and Field Training received updated maps and operators. | Warm-up and onboarding are more useful for ranked prep. |
Operation Split Fire: what has released
Split Fire introduced Noor and a targeted Villa update. The former Living Room/Library objective moved to the basement and Garage became interior space. Stadium Alpha, Stadium Bravo and House received modernization.
The season also changes operator equipment and weapon handling.
Legend Division is described as a SoloQ playlist with rank, reputation and security requirements. Its midseason launch is still listed as scheduled in the maintained roadmap. The description of a feature and its rollout status are two different facts.
What is still planned for Season 4
The roadmap lists an operator remaster, a new weapon, a Hostage Mode rework, Social Hub work, a new secondary gadget and Half Reinforcement testing. These are planned features, not a list of things you can use today.
Ubisoft explicitly notes that target dates can change. Check the next announcement before changing an operator or team plan around an unreleased mechanic.
Follow the update that affects your next match
Read season launch notes for new systems and maps, then balance notes for loadout and timing changes. A seasonal overview can remain accurate about the launch while missing a later weapon adjustment. The latest roadmap is best for status; patch notes are better for the exact change.
- Before queueing: current map and mode availability.
- Before setting a loadout: current operator equipment and attachments.
- Before spending: the actual pass or event deadline and rewards.
- Before troubleshooting: whether the security feature has rolled out to your playlist.
What to practice now
Revisit Villa’s lower floor, test the changed loadouts you use and check the map pool shown by your client. Learn Noor’s shield pressure in practice before treating him as a default pick. The Ranked map rotation guide separates Ranked selection from the professional map pool.
Read an account listing against the current game
A previous season’s rank, pass or cosmetic is historical account information. It does not prove current eligibility, that a pass is still purchasable or that a scheduled playlist is live. Compare the named inventory, platform and current access separately.
