According to The Gamer, Ubisoft's tactical shooter is being hacked by some unknown force that's handing out bans for 67 days. Players are reportedly posting on social media that their accounts have been flagged for an unexplained " harassment offence," leading to their accounts being suspended from matchmaking. Content creator VarsityGaming, who's been memeing the hack since it happened on January 4, corroborated the 67-day ban on their social media, suggesting that Siege may be down for two more days.

Now, barely a week later, a new attack is seeing players reporting their accounts are being banned under the category of "Harassment Offense," with the bans lasting a hilarious 67 days. This became much more widely known once high-profile streamer VarsityGaming found out he was a target of the meme-driven ban during a recent broadcast.

Rainbow Six Siege has survived ten of the most tumultuous years video games have ever seen. Not only that, but it's flourished in a space that is always trying to capitalize on the "next big thing."
