Ubisoft Takes Rainbow Six Siege and Marketplace Offline After Massive Account Anomalies

The publisher is investigating sudden currency windfalls and erroneous bans while cautioning players to wait for verified updates.

Overview

  • Players reported unexpected surges of R6 Credits, Renown, Alpha Packs and exclusive items, with screenshots showing balances reaching into the billions across PC and console.
  • Numerous accounts, including those of streamers and esports professionals, received sudden bans that some users say were later reversed.
  • Ubisoft acknowledged an ongoing incident affecting Rainbow Six Siege and said teams are working on a resolution without confirming the cause.
  • The game and its in‑game Marketplace were intentionally taken offline as part of the investigation following intermittent outages earlier in the day.
  • Community managers and news reports advise avoiding logins to reduce the risk of inventory corruption or false enforcement until official guidance is issued.
