Ubisoft Takes Rainbow Six Siege Offline Amid Holiday Hack
Ubisoft temporarily took Rainbow Six Siege offline over the holidays due to a hacker attack that caused account bans, credit and skin giveaways, and other disruptions. The game was re-launched on December 29 after rollback and investigation, with ongoing connectivity issues still reported. Ubisoft assured players no penalties would result from the hack and clarified that a separate ban wave was unrelated.
