Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege recently turned 7 years old. Between now and the initial release, so much content has been released for the game including maps, cosmetics, and operators. Every year the game also holds annual events. One of these events is the Snow Brawl event. It occurs every December and features a Christmas theme. In this guide, you’ll learn about when it starts and what content can be unlocked before it ends.

What Content is Featured During the Snow Brawl Event?

Release Date and Game Modes

Starting December 16, all Rainbow Six Siege players can experience the Snow Brawl event. It will last until January 6 meaning it’s three weeks long. There is plenty of new content to experience during that time. For instance, there is a capture-the-flag mode where players use snowballs as their main weapon. The mode takes place at night on the Chalet map. It only takes three hits to down another player but the mode has infinite respawns meaning players can quickly jump back into the action.

All Operators

There are 12 playable operators for the event who make up the Orange Blizzard and The Blue Blades, the event names for attackers and defenders respectively. The Orange Blizzard is Ash, Blackbeard, Montagne, and Osa. The Blue Blades are Dokkaebi, Grim, Sens, Rook, Vigil, Frost, Castle, and Thorn.

Rewards and Unlockables

The Rainbow Six Siege Snow Brawl event will also feature plenty of unlockable cosmetics for players to earn. These include 45 winter-themed outfits, weapon skins, headgear, and Operator card portraits. Players can also purchase the Snow Flake bundle which includes some weapon cosmetics. This along with the other cosmetic bundles will cost 1680 R6C.
