Rainbow Six Siege X Patch Fixes Major Launch Bugs

Rainbow Six Siege X Patch Fixes Address Major Launch Issues

On June 10, 2025, Ubisoft launched the Rainbow Six Siege X update with the ambitious goal of reinventing its iconic tactical shooter. With a new season releasing, players were ready to engage with new content and play in better systems and modes.

Unfortunately, the launch didn’t go as smoothly as hoped. There were so many bugs, glitches, and gameplay issues in their new update. To control the damage, Ubisoft responded swiftly with a series of patches.

Major Launch Issues Prompt Immediate Fixes

Players encountered multiple technical issues from the moment Siege X came out, such as in-game rewards not being dispensed and sound glitches. The non-U.S. console player chat function is being toggled off due to the key problems. Another Major problem was lobby freezing, Support Mode server crash, and an odd ‘Free Weekend’ banner bug on PS5.

Ubisoft took action within hours and implemented an emergency patch on the same day of launch. The developer also made a post asking players to restart the game or redownload some files so they could clear out some bugs. They did inform players that there would be some delays in rewards, but assured players that all important concerns would be fixed on time.

June 12 Patch Brings More Fixes and Stability

Ubisoft’s second significant patch came out on June 12 at 9:00 AM EST, and it caused a brief one-hour server downtime. This update addressed quite a few lingering issues. Among the most important fixes was the upside-down display of the Clash operator’s avatar in the Play hub. The graphical corruption in Dual Front and the erroneous esports event listings, where some tournaments were incorrectly marked as completed.

The company also invited players to submit any other bugs or glitches through the R6 Fix official forums, which would allow the developers to focus on the most important issues affecting the live servers.

Ubisoft is working intensively to restore trust from their players and stabilise the new Siege X experience. Though Operation: Daybreak has had a challenging launch, it does introduce some exciting features, and fans remain optimistic about smoother gameplay in the future. More fixes and updates are anticipated in the next few weeks, but a live developer Q&A on June 15 may provide deeper details on plans for Siege X.
