Rainbow Six Siege patch Y9S1.1 delivers bug fixes for Operator gadgets, map exploits, and UI errors. Downloads range from 1.9 GB to 2.73 GB.

Ubisoft deployed patch Y9S1.1 for Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege. File sizes vary by platform, starting at 1.9 GB on Steam and reaching 2.73 GB on PlayStation 4.

Operator and Gameplay Fixes

Crouched Ballistic Shield users no longer expose their feet. Stepping on a fire source with the shield equipped also avoids an unintended guard break animation. Buck's Skeleton Key functions correctly when the fire key is pressed during transition animations. Deimos players receive fixed DeathMARK cooldown displays in caster mode and immediate activation after target switches. Bandit's Shock Wire disables properly when hit by EMP grenades. A double vault exploit using a Deployable Shield and Azami's Kiba Barrier to reach unintended lines of sight is removed.

Map Adjustments

Theme Park stops defenders from being detected outside between 2F Yellow Corridor and 2F Cafe Corridor, as well as between 1F Blue Room and 1F Joint Corridor, while also blocking players from climbing barrels in the 1F Barrel Room. Skyscraper removes a vault onto a 2F Tea Room cabinet. Kanal fixes a metal box navigation spot at EXT Sailboats. Border removes an outside detection zone in 1F Main Stairs. Villa fixes rooftop wall clipping on EXT Bedroom Roof. Outback stops the defuser from becoming irretrievable near railings on EXT Terrace Balcony. Chalet fixes AI bots getting stuck on furniture in the southeast corner of 1F Bar.

User Experience

Reputation values display correctly alongside actions in the Reputation tab. The Locker renders properly across main categories and subcategories, and Battle Pass intro navigation keys work normally. Frame rate drops during fast scrolling in the Operators tab are resolved.

Why this patch matters

Y9S1.1 is a maintenance update focused on squashing exploits and fixing gadget inconsistencies.
