The fully server-dependent Rainbow Six Siege with no campaign mode automatically became unplayable when the servers shut down. There was no offline content that players could access while waiting for a fix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Report summarized by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleepingcomputer.com\/news\/security\/massive-rainbow-six-siege-breach-gives-players-billions-of-credits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Bleeping Computer<\/a> said the attacker managed to take control of the player's ban system, including canceling the ban. The usually serious ban pop-up message was transformed into a ticker meme, showing the lyrics of Shaggy's \u201cIt Wasn't Me\u201d. This situation made the game space feel completely controlled by outsiders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">A rollback is currently ongoing and afterwards, extensive quality control tests will be executed to ensure the integrity of accounts and effectiveness of changes.

The hackers allegedly distributed around 2 billion credits to players, alongside a massive amount of renown. All skins and cosmetic items are reportedly open to all players, removing the sense of progression and scarcity that is usually the foundation of the live service economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rainbow Six Siege team then announced a rollback of all transactions since 11:00 UTC. Players who have already used the \u201cfree\u201d credits are said not to be banned, but purchases that occurred within the affected time frame will be canceled. This decision practically saved the game's economic structure, but also erased several hours of legitimate player activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dugaan_Pembobolan_Lebih_Luas_ke_Sistem_Ubisoft\"><\/span>Alleged Breach Wider to Ubisoft Systems<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The VX-Underground account on X said the incident in Rainbow Six Siege occurred in conjunction with an alleged wider infiltration of Ubisoft's systems. Rumors include the possibility of proprietary code theft and potential user data leaks. As of this writing, there has been no official confirmation from Ubisoft about the extent to which internal systems were affected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ubisoft's public statements have so far focused on the rollback process, quality testing, and maintaining account integrity. They emphasized that the ban ticker message that appeared was not from an official update, as the feature had been turned off previously. The development team said the issue is being handled very carefully, so a full recovery time cannot be promised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sejumlah hacker dilaporkan telah berhasil menyerang Rainbow Six Siege.
