Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege Y9S2.2 Patch Notes

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege Y9S2.2 addresses shield melee interactions, deadzone calibration, and UI bugs. The patch is available now across all platforms with download sizes ranging from 857 MB to 1.46 GB.

Ubisoft released patch Y9S2.2 for Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege, delivering gameplay fixes, map corrections, and user interface bug resolutions.

Gameplay and Operators

Operators can no longer melee through shields, and deadzone sensitivity applies calibration properly. Ying's Candela ability also receives a visual detail fix when held close to the operator.

Map Adjustments

A level design issue on the Border map where drones could clip inside a wall in the EXT Valley area is fixed.

User Interface and Audio

The drone red scan ping displays correctly on the player UI during the preparation phase. The update resolves duplicate matchmaking play button text, fixes OTs-03 reticules ignoring optic color and opacity settings, and restores missing sound effects when drones are destroyed in support mode at round end. Players can no longer access the unlock option with operator specialties after unlocking a pathfinder operator with renown, toggle hidden completed challenges, and scroll through the Battle Pass after viewing challenges.

Known Issues

A security update may cause third-party applications interacting with Siege to crash on startup. The developers recommend temporarily disabling these applications until updated versions are available.

Why this patch matters

Y9S2.2 is a maintenance patch that addresses shield and UI discrepancies while noting third-party application conflicts.
