Ubisoft announced the sanction of nearly 19,000 players whose accounts allegedly used an “unfair exploit”.
Nearly 19,000 accounts were penalized after ubisoft discovered that they were using a “treacherous exploit”. As part of its “zero tolerance” policy towards cheaters, the developer responsible for, among other things, Rainbow Six: Siege, the Assassin’s Creed series and The Division, published a press release explaining the situation. :
Earlier in Ubisoft’s announcement, around 12,000 penalized accounts could be played, but after a short period, this number was updated.
At this time, it’s unknown which Ubisoft games were affected, although one could be Rainbow Six: Siege. On Reddit, in the r/Ubisoft thread, some R6S players have reported receiving codes for two-factor verification. despite the lack of connection attempts from them.
The correlation of the two facts does not seem to be a coincidence, but in the meantime we have to wait for more information from the developer to be able to say something with more certainty.
