It\u2019s the kind of crossover fans have dreamed about for decades, brought to life as Ubisoft teases a full reveal for the Year 11 roadmap that\u2019s scheduled to take place next month, February 15, at 8 a.m. PT \/ 11 a.m. ET on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/rainbow6\"><u>Rainbow Six Siege Twitch page<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"ignvideo\" data-slug=\"rainbow-six-siege-official-solid-snake-teaser-trailer\" data-loop=\"\"><\/section>\n<p>It\u2019s unclear if today\u2019s tease is just for the Solid Snake Operator or if fans should instead expect a selection of skins from Konami as well, but judging by the fanfare surrounding the reveal, it looks like Ubisoft went all out for this latest collaboration. Either way, the Solid Snake teaser marks what is likely the most exciting Operator in the last 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>There were some early signs that Rainbow Six Siege could soon meet the world of Metal Gear Solid.
