Developers have already detailed the major features of the "Operation Red Crow" downloadable content pack coming to "Rainbow Six Siege," and now, a release date for the content drop has been revealed as well.

Starting Nov. 17, players will be able to try out the new additions included in the "Operation Red Crow" content drop.

Notably, only season pass owners will be able to access the new Operators featured in the DLC pack on Nov. 17. Players who don't own the game's season pass will have to wait until the following week - Nov. 24 to be exact - before they too can take control of the new Operators, GameSpot reported.

Speaking of the new Operators, the two set to be introduced via "Operation Red Crow" are expected to be quite different from the ones already available inside "Rainbow Six Siege."

Starting off with the new attacker Hibana, versatility is her strength and this quality of hers will enable players to construct different teams that can excel in different situations.

Hibana's primary weapons will be the SuperNova and the Type-89, while the P229 and the PM9 will be her secondary weapons. Hibana's different weapons will enable her to retain her quickness, and they will also still provide ample amounts of firepower.

The other Operator, Echo, will be the defender and he will make use of gadgets inside the game. Developers have already shown that he will be able to use a drone, though it's unclear if he may possess other gadgets that could be useful in combat.

Three of Echo's four weapons are similar to Hibana's. The only difference is that he will have the MP5SD4 instead of the Type-89.

"Rainbow Six Siege" players eager to learn more about Hibana, Echo and the other features of "Operation Red Crow" can tune in to the live demo that's set to take place on Nov. 13.
