How Rainbow Six Siege Outage Affects Users

Many users are currently in the middle of using their Crimson Heist Battle Pass that runs from March 16th to May 25th to redeem in-game rewards. Since the current server outage is affecting matchmaking, some players are voicing their frustration of not receiving their MMR (Matchmaking Rating) after winning matches. 

The official Rainbow Six Siege Twitter account posted about their most recent updates, including one that was designed to “bring improvements to the connectivity” of their servers. 

The Global Status of the PS4 version of the Rainbow Six Siege is still listed as an unplanned service outage. It is unclear whether this service disruption is connected to the recent update or something else. We will keep you posted as more information is available.
