Rainbow Six Siege Update Y6S3.3 Patch Notes for October 19

Rainbow Six Siege Y6S3.3 update is now officially live on PC. The new update not only fixes some recent issues but also upgrades Kapkan and Castle with new abilities.

A few weeks earlier, Ubisoft Montreal delivered some new changes to the Test Servers of Rainbow Six Siege, including the increased recoil for MX4 and P10 Roni, as well as new buffs for Kapkan, Oryx, Wamai, and Castle.

Today, all these changes come to the game’s primary servers. So, don’t get surprised if you see 4 armored panels blocking the entries or 5 EDD devices all installed into a single door.

The new update will surely change the game plan for squads and might be able to eventually revive Castle and Kapkan with the new buffs. You can check out the full patch notes of the Rainbow Six Siege update Y6S3.3 down below:
