A writer on Rainbow Six Siege has expressed their pride at the game’s first transgender operator, who arrives with the Crystal Guard season update.
Narrative writer, Simon Ducharme, said they are “incredibly proud” of developing the character and had “tears of joy” knowing they were “encouraged and supported” to write queer characters.
Speaking to Gamespot, Ducharme added: “The decision to create a transgender character was made early on, as part of our initiative to have an inclusive roster of Operators.
The update also brings map changes to Bank, Coastline, and Clubhouse, bringing all three “in-line with today’s technical standards”.
