Player Protection

The Rainbow Six Siege development team is committed to ensuring a safe environment and fair experience for all players. Many features are currently being developed to reinforce players' protection and will be released throughout the year. This hub will gather regular updates on Rainbow Six Siege Player Protection initiatives and reports on Anti-Cheat, Banned Accounts, Anti-Toxicity and more.

MOUSETRAP (MOUSE & KEYBOARD PENALTY ON CONSOLE)

Coming in the middle of Operation Commanding Force, players who use mouse and keyboard on consoles will activate a penalty that adds lag to their inputs. The goal of this penalty is to encourage fair gameplay by removing the unfair advantage that mouse and keyboard players have on consoles.

While active, continued use of mouse and keyboard gradually increases the lag over several matches, making it harder to aim and shoot. Completing matches with a controller will gradually reduce the lag back to normal.
