After releasing the "Operation Red Crow" DLC for "Rainbow Six Siege" last week for those who purchased the season pass, players experienced a bug when using one of the new Japanese operators of the game.

Complaints from PlayStation 4 players claim that the experience mid-round freezes after selecting the new operator named Hibana. This issue could sometimes affect several players while the others are not. This means that there could be a chance that other players can take advantage of the others' misfortunes.

This prompted the game studio to immediately remove Hibana in the game, temporarily. But the removal only caused another bug where players were prevented from moving past the Seasons rewards popup.

In a statement posted on Reddit, the game developer announced that they will bring back Hibana in the game even if the first issue is yet to be fixed because the second issue happens more frequently compared to the first one. But Ubisoft warned against picking the operator at the moment. "To clarify, the issues that result from picking Hibana have not yet been fixed. We recommend you do not pick her, but removing her prevented players from accessing the game, and had to be reversed," the game studio said.

Aside from Hibana, the "Rainbow Six Siege: Operation Red Crow" DLC introduces another operator named Echo.

The DLC also came with a brand new map called the Skyscraper, and the new expansion centers on the events that are happening in Nagoya, Japan. Other new features from the DLC include several new weapon features and new skins, like new headgear, uniform, and new animated sequences for the game's operators.

Those who want to purchase the "Rainbow Six Siege: Operation Red Crow" DLC separately can get it starting Thursday, Nov. 24.

Ubisoft also announced that there will be another round of content support for "Rainbow Six Siege" that will be released in 2017.
