Rainbow Six Siege X suffered a significant incident that players quickly noticed through sudden credit spikes, unexpected inventory changes, and account safety concerns. The situation escalated to the point that Ubisoft took action to protect account integrity and stabilize services.
Here’s the clean version of what players were seeing during the worst of it:
- Accounts receiving massive amounts of R6 Credits through an exploit
- Inventory and transaction weirdness, including purchases and unlocks that didn’t look legitimate
- Confusing ban-style messages that led many players to think bans were going out in real time
- Services are being restricted or taken offline while Ubisoft prepares account fixes and a rollback
1. Ubisoft’s Rollback Plan and What It Means for Your Account
Ubisoft’s position is straightforward: players will not be punished for spending the R6 credits they received during the hack wave, because the fix is a transaction rollback, not a retroactive ban.
1.1 Rollback window and who might be affected
Key points from the official updates:
- A rollback of transactions that occurred after a specific cutoff time was initiated.
- The team warned that the fix requires careful testing, so timing updates were not guaranteed.
- After reopening, Ubisoft said the rollback is complete, but a small percentage of players may temporarily lose access to some owned items if they logged in during the affected window.
- Corrections are expected to continue for up to two weeks for impacted accounts.
2. Rainbow Six Siege X Server Status Right Now
As of the latest official update from Ubisoft’s X account, Siege X is open to all players again.
What to expect when you log in:
- Matchmaking is live, but you may still see queues while services ramp fully.
- Ubisoft acknowledged issues such as long queue times, queue resets, and synchronization errors, and said the queue issues are now resolved.
- The Marketplace is still closed until further notice while investigations continue.
- If you did not log in during the affected window, Ubisoft says you should see no inventory changes.
- If you logged in during the affected window, you may see temporary access issues to items while fixes roll out.
