Rainbow Six Siege Year 5 Season 4 Operation Neon Dawn is now available for all players to enjoy. The free DLC brings a new operator, map rework, balancing changes, and extra features. The update is quite big but it reduces the overall size of the game. This should lead to less loading time.

Developers showed the addendum patch notes for the new season. The extra document detailed other interesting changes. First, they significantly reduced the muffled sound that happened on low health. You can now hear your surroundings better.

Next, they removed the explosion haze on all maps. This makes gameplays much more consistent. Both changes are demanded by the community for a long time. And thankfully, the developers delivered. You can read more about the new operator and map rework in our previous article .

The complete changelog is available here . The highlights of the addendum patch notes include:

Y5S4 PATCH SIZE

  • A larger download will be required for Y5S4 due to data consolidation.
  • This is to save disk space, reduce overall build size, and improve loading times for players.
  • Below you will find the download sizes for each platform. - PC: 60-87GB - Series X: 3.2GB - Xbox One: 35.9GB - PS4: 35.9GB - PS5: 5.38GB

TWEAKS AND IMPROVEMENTS

GAME HEALTH

DEFUSER PICKUP

  • The defuser pick-up interaction that was introduced during the 3.3 update has been deactivated. The defuser prompt will be available later on in Season 4.
  • Auto-pickup, when walking over the defuser, is still active.

EXPLOSION HAZE

  • Explosion haze will be removed from all maps with Y5S4.0 to ensure consistency and reliability, which is not achieved with the current haze system.

MUFFLED SOUNDS - LOW HEALTH

  • Muffled sounds when players are low in health have been toned down. Players will find themselves at less of a disadvantage in these situations.
