Rainbow Six Siege remains Ubisoft’s most successful live-service title to date. Every month, hundreds of thousands of players log into the first-person shooter and enjoy intensive, tactical first-person shooter gameplay.

The size of Ubisoft’s player base also means that security needs to be kept tight to ensure fair gameplay across the board and the protection of gamers who share their personal information with Ubisoft. Unfortunately, recent reports indicate the Rainbow Six Siege servers have been breached.

According to various reports, Rainbow Six Siege is currently experiencing problems with its servers. The servers have now been shut down temporarily to deal with the issue, but prior to Ubisoft’s actions, thousands of players confirmed that they received unsolicited bans.

Others also confirmed that they received millions of R6 Credits, which is an in-game currency used to purchase different items. Players are recommended to refrain from spending this currency since it could lead to problems later down the line due to a potential breach of the Terms of Service.

At the moment, the exact cause of this suspicious activity remains a mystery. The community seems convinced that Ubisoft has suffered a major attack on its servers. Even before the Rainbow Six Siege servers went down, many advised players to refrain from logging in due to safety concerns.

Over on r/Rainbow6, users are sharing updates on the matter as the situation evolves, and they wait for official word from the developers. Suffice it to say, the situation is nothing short of a disaster for the development team, especially since Rainbow Six Siege is such a massive game from a massive studio.

For players specifically, the situation does not seem too awful for now. Ubisoft will likely deal with the bans and R6 Credits once the breach is cleared, but there is a chance this attack could lead to leaked personal details like credit card information.

In such a case, the consequences could be dire for the entire Rainbow Six Siege community. Here’s hoping the studio acts promptly and shares official updates on the matter as soon as possible.
