For Halloween 2023, Rainbow Six Siege is introducing Doktor’s Curse 4, a limited-time event aimed to provide a spooky, yet fun gameplay experience to all Siege players.

This year, new operators are joining the roster of Monsters and Hunters, as you prepare to return to the Doktor’s Castle. And as Ubisoft puts it “Step into the abyss and slay every damned Monster this Halloween in Doktor’s Curse 4: Night of the Hunters!

Exclusive Game Mode: Hide and Seek

Both teams do not have access to firearms of any kind in this game mode. The Hunters only have a modified version of Sledge’s Hammer and unique abilities to track the Monsters. Monsters cannot attack Hunters directly but have access to traps and abilities as well. Hunters win if they hunt down all the Monsters while the Monsters take the round if they survive the night!

New Operators and Abilities

In Doktor’s curse, the deadliest game of hide and seek ensues between the Hunters (Attackers) and the Monsters (Defenders). Returning Operators from last year, alongside a rebalanced Oryx, are joined by newcomers Dokkaebi and Nøkk with their own exclusive accursed cosmetic bundles. As a special surprise this year, Iana will also have her own exclusive Doktor’s Curse bundle for a limited time too!

In this fast-paced chase of terror, Hunters are equipped with hammers while Monsters have access to the Nightstride ability, granting temporary invisibility with increased movement speed along with their traps. Nightstride has a cooldown effect and may only be used three times by a player during a round. This year one of the Hunters also will have this ability to keep the chase frantic so keep watching your six while running!

New and Returning Collections
