Rainbow Six Siege 4.2 Patch Notes live, Clash re-enabled


Ubisoft is rolling out its latest update for Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege, delivering a second mid-season patch host to bug fixes and gameplay tweaks. Patch 4.2 places a focus on re-enabling Clash, following her removal from public multiplayer matches, amid a game-breaking exploit following the release of Operation Shifting Tides. Ubisoft also accompanies the remedy with further changes, eliminating prevalent issues around Operators and level design.

The return of Clash follows over one month of quarantine for the holiday season, as Ubisoft wrangled a nasty unexpected bug impacting her high-voltage CCE Shield. Performing certain button combinations would allow players to shoot with her shield appearing raised, with significant implications on the state of competitive play. To avoid widespread impact, Ubisoft disabled the defender until developing a fix. The full patch notes also highlight fixes primarily targeting Goyo and Mira, among other quality-of-life improvements.

Rainbow Six Siege Update 4.2 Patch Notes

Ubisoft has announced plans to release the latest Rainbow Six Siege update, Patch 4.2, exclusively for PC on January 13, 2019. While also slated for Xbox One and PlayStation 4, the team is yet to commit to a firm release date.

Rainbow Six Siege PC clients will receive the update starting 9AM ET, translating to 6AM PT, 2PM GMT, or 3PM CET. Ubisoft warns this will be accompanied by 25 minutes downtime for PC players. The full list of Rainbow Six Siege Patch 4.2 changes and bug fixes is located below, as provided by Ubisoft.
