Rainbow Six hack was allegedly a diversion to steal valuable and ‘classified’ information from Ubisoft, and no one has any idea what might come next

Yesterday, on Dec. 27, Rainbow Six Siege X was hit by a massive security breach, which enabled hackers to give out literal trillions in premium currency, as well as to unlock any skin, including developer ones, for all players. However, that could’ve just been a front for something far more sinister.

According to Taison TV, a Spanish-language news source, the Rainbow Six Siege X breach was allegedly a “Trojan horse,” used to distract Ubisoft while the hackers stole valuable and “classified” information from the company. The hacker group, allegedly named Arctic, seemingly bragged about the hack on a private Telegram channel, saying it had covered its tracks enough to allow them to hack the company again.

Ubisoft sources reportedly told Taison TV that the personal data of players wasn’t affected by the breach. The group seemingly plans to release certain information it had acquired in the hack, and will do so if Ubisoft does not contact them. From a screenshot shared by Taison TV, it seems the group wishes to sell the information to potential buyers, but will first redact information to avoid harming Siege players.

So far, Ubisoft has released very little official information about the hack, but its silence could indicate a much bigger problem than was first anticipated. A few hours after the Siege hack, Ubisoft apparently cut not only Siege‘s servers but most of its game servers, taking games like For Honor completely offline. This could’ve been done to assess all the damage done by the breach, which may have included servers and services not related to Siege itself.

Ubisoft only confirmed the Siege server cut, but did not provide information about its other games.

For Honor has been brought back since last night, but Siege‘s servers remain offline across all relevant platforms.

The above should be taken as an allegation, nothing more, since we do not have official information from Ubisoft or relevant developer teams at the time of writing, which only makes sense given the potential severity of this security breach.

If it does turn out to be true, it’s anyone’s guess what the hackers might have gotten their hands on, though initial theories include leaks of Ubisoft’s dev builds, source code, planned and cancelled games, among other things.

The release of Time Warp team 2 might be at least a couple of weeks away from the time of writing, but the FC 26 community can take advantage of all the leaks available on social media.

So far, EA Sports has remained tight-lipped about what’s going to arrive during the festive calendar once Winter Wildcards is over. Social media rumors suggest that the Time Warp promo will be the next campaign in Ultimate Team, and it will be a two-week affair.

Let’s look at all the cards that have been leaked.
