Over the past few hours, the Xbox, PC, and PlayStation communities have been shaken by an unexpected situation related to Rainbow Six Siege. Players from around the world are reporting anomalous behavior on their accounts, with rewards appearing out of nowhere and sanctions that don’t seem to be related to any known infraction.

The issue has caused significant concern, especially since it’s not just a simple visual glitch. Testimonies agree that something serious is happening on the tactical shooter’s servers, right when many users were accessing the game normally.

Ubisoft investigates a possible active exploit in Rainbow Six Siege

According to reports shared by players and content creators, some accounts have received massive amounts of R6 Credits, Renown, Alpha Packs, and exclusive items without making any purchases or meeting the requirements. At the same time, random automatic bans have occurred, which in some cases have been lifted hours later, adding to the confusion.

For now, Ubisoft has not issued an official statement, although various sources point to server restarts and emergency maintenance tasks. Everything suggests a security breach or active exploit, so the general recommendation is not to log in to the game until the company confirms that the situation is completely under control. Accessing the game now could pose unnecessary risks to accounts.
