Rainbow Six Siege News: Operation Split Fire and Osaka Major

Y11S3.1 patch and Wasteland Circuit event

Ubisoft’s official update feed lists Y11S3.1 patch notes on 22 September and a new Wasteland Circuit Twitch Drop on 23 September. The patch-note page is the authoritative place to check operator, map, bug-fix and platform-specific changes; the headline alone does not enumerate all details.

Year 11 also brings Ranked 3.0, which Ubisoft said would launch with Operation System Override on 2 June. For season progression, check current ranked placement, seasonal challenges and any battle-pass timer in the client because rewards and availability are time-limited.

Ranked 3.0, seasonal rewards and drops

• Ranked 3.0 is a major change to Siege’s progression. Use Ubisoft’s Ranked 3.0 explainer for the rating and placement rules rather than relying on old MMR guides.
• The Wasteland Circuit notice offers an exclusive drone skin and Twitch chat badge. Confirm eligible streams and account linking on Ubisoft’s announcement before expecting a Drop.
