Rainbow Six Siege Hack: Billions of Credits, Bans

R6 Siege Outage: Credits, Dev Skins & Bans
R6 Outage Chaos
  • Players report billions of R6 Credits, Renown, and developer-only skins added to accounts.
  • Ubisoft lists critical service outages across PC, PS4/PS5, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.
  • Thousands of accounts reportedly banned and unbanned at random; community warns to stay offline.
  • Ubisoft investigating; rollback and account remediation expected but outcome unclear.

Global outages confirmed across platforms

Ubisoft’s official service status shows critical issues affecting Rainbow Six Siege authentication, store access, and matchmaking on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. Core connectivity is marked as degraded and full outages are reported across major regions.

This wide scope has elevated the incident beyond a routine server hiccup in the eyes of players and creators.

Ubisoft response and community criticism

Ubisoft acknowledged an "incident" and said engineering teams are investigating but did not explicitly call it a security breach. That phrasing has prompted heavy pushback from the community.

Players and streamers accuse Ubisoft of downplaying the severity after many accounts were visibly altered while services remained online for hours.

What players are seeing in affected accounts

Multiple reports say accounts were credited with billions of R6 Credits and Renown, thousands of Alpha Packs, and access to exclusive developer skins and Glacier cosmetics. Some users also saw the in-game ban feed display arbitrary messages.

Thousands of bans and subsequent unbans were reported, affecting casual players, streamers and high-profile community members in real time.

High-profile reaction

Creator KingGeorge described the situation as "completely broken" and urged players not to log in. He warned that spending currency or interacting with altered accounts could trigger rollbacks or penalties once Ubisoft restores control.

Likely outcomes: rollbacks, remediations and risk of penalties

With authentication and account systems compromised, an account rollback to a pre-incident state is the most likely remediation. That could remove unauthorized credits and cosmetics, but it also risks reversing legitimate transactions.

There is concern that automated enforcement could mistakenly penalize innocent players who logged in or spent currency during the incident.

What players should do now

Until Ubisoft provides a clear post-incident statement, avoid logging in to Rainbow Six Siege and do not spend R6 Credits or Renown if you regain access. Monitor Ubisoft’s official status page and the Rainbow Six Siege social channels for verified updates.

Enable two-factor authentication on your Ubisoft account, keep strong unique passwords, and document any unexpected changes to your account. If you are banned, contact Ubisoft Support with timestamps and evidence — but expect delays while the company investigates at scale.

Clear, transparent communication from Ubisoft will be critical to limit long-term damage to player trust and the Siege ecosystem.
