The latest trailer for Rainbow Six Siege introduces us to the German GSG 9 Unit, a special forces unit that specialises in counter terrorism from the land of good sausages and even better beer.
Considered calling in the real special forces as a prank? A swatter has just been sentenced to a year in prison.
The first operative we’re introduced to is IQ (because she’s smart, maybe?). She has a gadget that lets her scan for enemy electronic equipment. Apparently her motto is: “Some gadgets are fun. Some are deadly, but still fun to destroy.” Cool motto, sis.
Blitz is equipped with a tactical shield that has three rows of flahsbangs that detonate when fired at, allowing him to retaliate while the enemy is blinded. He likes to say, “Flashy, flashy, shooty, killy.” (He doesn’t actually say that).
The next operative is Jager, who uses a gadget called the ‘magpie’ to neutralise incoming projectiles. And the last operative, Bandit, can electrify enemy barbed wire and reinforced walls, turning them into deadly weapons against their owners.
See them all in action in the trailer and try not to wince too hard at that line about gadgets:
GSG 9 Operator Profile – Blitz (Attacker)
Elias Kötz, also known as Blitz, earned his nickname by aggressively charging into hostiles with his riot shield. In fact, his only primary weapon option happens to also be his unique gadget, the G52 Tactical Light Shield. This enhanced riot shield is equipped with built in flash charges, capable of blinding and stunning enemies while providing a high level of protection.
Along with his shield, Blitz has high armor, making him perfect for making aggressive pushes into hostile territory. However, with his limited loadout, Blitz relies heavily on teammates to do most of the offensive damage. If you need a point man for your team, consider bringing Blitz into the fight.

GSG 9 Operator Profile – IQ (Attacker) IQ can detect enemy electronic equipment before they ever see her coming.
Monika Weiss is known for being highly intelligent and a fast learner, which has earned her the nickname “IQ”. With her background in electrical engineering, she is comfortable using electronics to gain a tactical advantage in the field.
IQ is one of the Attacker variants available in the German GSG 9 counter-terrorist unit. Her wrist-mounted electronics detector is a unique gadget that can detect enemy electronic traps and devices from a distance. The screen on her electronics detector will display feedback regarding all enemy electronics within a given range. Since her special gadget is a more supportive weapon, she actually has three primary weapons available to choose from. Although she is used as an offensive Attacker, IQ provides a decent level of intel for her teammates.
