Ubisoft has officially dropped the trailer for Maverick’s Elite Set, “Hotshot Welder,” and it is a massive treat for players who love a bit of grit, history, and tactical style. If you’ve been waiting for the hard-breaching, blowtorch-wielding attacker to get the premium treatment, your time has finally come.

Let’s break down everything revealed in the trailer and what you get when you unlock the bundle.

Going Back to His Roots

Maverick (Erik Thorn) has always been one of the more enigmatic operators in the Rainbow roster, boasting a dark backstory involving years spent undercover in Kabul. His Elite skin leans heavily into his veteran lore.

Ditching his standard modern tactical gear, the Hotshot Welder uniform sports a classic, rugged military look. With rolled-up sleeves, traditional combat trousers, and a vintage welder’s cap paired with heavy-duty safety goggles, Maverick looks less like a sleek operative and more like a battle-hardened combat engineer who isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty.

What’s Inside the Bundle?

As with all premium Elite sets, you’re getting a massive overhaul for the operator. Buying the bundle unlocks a complete cosmetic overhaul:

• Uniform: Hotshot Welder
• Headgear: Maverick’s Elite Goggles and Cap
• Victory Animation: A unique, torch-flaming MVP celebration
• Operator Card: Custom Elite artwork for the loading screens
• Chibi Charm: Elite Maverick Chibi
• Weapon Skins: Custom retro finishes for his entire arsenal:
  • AR-15.50 DMR
  • M4 Assault Rifle
  • 1911 TACOPS Pistol

That Victory Dance, Though

Easily the highlight of the reveal trailer is the brand-new MVP victory animation. If you manage to top the leaderboard, your team will be treated to Maverick stepping up to the camera, firing up his signature Suri Torch, and sparks flying as he casually cuts through a metal barrier right in front of the screen. It perfectly encapsulates his quiet, dangerous persona.

Our Take: Maverick remains one of the most versatile attackers in the game for opening up line-of-sight holes in reinforced walls. Giving him an Elite skin that looks this clean while burning through hard walls is bound to make him even more popular in Ranked play.
