We were promised two new operators for every season of Rainbow Six Siege this year, but after we received our Spanish operators, Jackal and Mira, from the Operation Velvet Shell DLC, we haven't gotten another operator since. With good reason – Siege suffered from a lot of game-breaking bugs and issues, which prompted the team at Ubisoft to halt its schedule to launch an emergency Operation: Health update to tackle problems that ranged from gameplay to server stability. Now that Siege is semi-functioning and operational, it's time to get back to the good 'ol days of new characters and maps. Via a reddit post from @NitroKatze, here is an alleged leak of a new Polish GROM operative.

Details are slim at this point, but via a second image, we get a better look at the Polish Pustynna Pantera camo as well as a closer look at her sidearm: a Polish PR-15. Not only is the PR-15 Polish-made, which adds credibility to the leaked images, but it also reveals an interesting feature – an optical sight attachment. Could expanded weapon-modification options be this new operator's special perk?

Speculators also believe we're looking at a new 3-speed defense operator, a la Bandit and Jager (it's because of the ginormous earmuffs, isn't it?). Either way, we'll know for sure in the weeks ahead.

The next upcoming Rainbow Six Siege DLC will be Hong Kong Season 3. As per the new arrangements following Operation: Health, Poland will no longer have a dedicated season or a new multiplayer map. Instead, its Polish GROM operatives will be split; one introduced along with the Hong Kong Season 3 DLC and the other along with the South Korea Season 4 update.

Expect to see the new Rainbow Six Siege Hong Kong update arrive sometime in August. Stay tuned as we expect to learn more soon.
