Rumor: Master Chief Skin is Coming to Rainbow Six Siege

Klobrille, a X (Twitter) devoted to first-party Xbox and Bethesda coverage, posted footage of a supposed Rainbow Six Siege skin of Master Chief.

According to the post and accompanying video, this is an elite skin for Sledge. For those unfamiliar with the terminology, an elite skin is an optional skin that players can purchase with credits.

Unfortunately, a date, price, or even skins were revealed for this skin. However, it will likely come with Operation Heavy Mettle, which releases on Aug. 29.

This season, protect those who don’t have your strength and remain loyal to those who put their faith in you with the launching of Rainbow Six Siege’s Operation Heavy Mettle! Our newest Attacker, Ram, comes to us from South Korea and is ready to join the ranks of Redhammer. An ambitious and trustworthy soldier, she comes with the Bu-Gi Auto-Breacher, a deployable mini-tank that’s sure to take everything down in its path.
