The final day of the Six Invitational is always a highlight for Rainbow Six Siege fans, as Ubisoft traditionally unveils exciting new content. This year, they introduced Rauora, the latest attack operator hailing from New Zealand. Rauora brings a unique tactical advantage to the game with her innovative DOM launcher.
The DOM launcher is a bulletproof shield designed specifically for deployment in doorways, although it can be destroyed by explosives. This shield features a trigger mechanism that can be activated by shooting it. The time it takes for the shield to open varies depending on the team that shoots it: attackers can open it in just one second, whereas defenders must wait three seconds. This difference can be crucial, especially in high-stakes scenarios where the defuser has been planted.

In addition to the DOM launcher, Rauora introduces the Reaper MK2, a new fully automatic pistol equipped with a red dot sight and an enlarged magazine. For her primary weapons, players can choose between the M249 LMG or the 417 marksman rifle, allowing for versatile combat strategies.
Fans eager to try out Rauora can access her on the test servers starting next week. However, it will be a bit longer before she becomes available on the live version of the game.
