Operation Neon Dawn is the last major update to Rainbow Six Siege for 2020. It doesn't quite have the bumper selection of features that Shadow Legacy had, but it does introduce us to a new operator, the delayed rework of Skyscraper, some balancing and system changes, and a new charity initiative.
While we were meant to get Skyscraper in Shadow Legacy, it was pushed back in part due to the pandemic, but thankfully that's given Ubisoft time to fully work out exactly what it wants to change and what it wants to keep intact. There's also now a roof over the dragon's head, which is quite nice.
As always, new stuff will always be the part of the update that gets the most attention, and new operator Aruni looks to give the defenders some extra firepower and useful defensive options. She's the first defender with a DMR, and her gadget looks to shake things up a fair bit. So with all that in mind, let's break down what is coming in the Operation Neon Dawn update.
