After a short delay, Operation Vector Glare is underway. Year 7 Season 2 has had mixed results, with players a bit disappointed with Sens and underwhelmed with the new Shooting Range mode.

It's no surprise that Rainbow Six Siege players are already wondering about Year 7 Season 3. When will it be released and what does it include?

When is Rainbow Six Siege Year 7 Season 3?

According to the Year 7 roadmap, the new season should be coming out around September of 2022.

There was also going to be a new competitive map but developers have revealed it's going to be delayed. It will now be released in Season 4.

"This will give [Singapore] more time and more love to make it bigger and bolder than any map you've seen before in Rainbow Six Siege," Creative Director Alexander Karpazis said.

Grim is still a mystery (and just a rumor for now) but leaks have suggested that he will be a defender that stays back and protects areas with a swarm of nanobots.
