Skopós is the 37th Defender, and another 2-Speed 2-Health Operator, joining Rainbow Six Siege in Year 9 Season 3. She will be rocking two Pantheon Shells, basically robots acting as Operators, in a single round. Although you can control only one at a time, the inactive Shell will still provide a lot of value to a round.

All Skopós weapons and gadgets

Skopós uses the new PCX-33 as the only primary weapon. It’s a .308 caliber Assault Rifle with a 745 RPM fire rate and comes with a 3.30-second reload speed.

For the secondary firearm, you get to use the P229 pistol. Other Operators such as Hibana, Echo, Goyo, and Grim also have this weapon choice in their loadouts.

Coming to the gadgets, you get to choose between Impact Grenades or Proximity Alarms.

Skopós abilities explained

Skopós controls a pair of V10 Pantheon Shells and justifies the intel or support role in a match. The active Pantheon Shell acts as an Operator while the other acts as an Observation Tool, protected by a reinforced shield.

While playing as Skopós, you can operate only one Shell at a time but you can always switch between them at will. If an enemy kills one shell, you lose connection to both shells. That’s how you eliminate Skopós while playing as an Attacker.

How to unlock Skopós in Rainbow Six Siege

To unlock Skopós immediately in Rainbow Six Siege Year 9 Season 3, you have to purchase the Premium Battle Pass which costs 1,200 Credits.

Otherwise, you have to wait 14 days (from September 10) for the early access period to get over and spend 25,000 Renown to unlock her.
