Prominent Rainbow Six Siege Cheat Designer Permanently Ceases Services
In a surprising turn of events, popular cheat provider Klar.gg has announced that it will “permanently discontinue” all cheats for Rainbow Six Siege. The announcement, made via a message on Klar’s official Telegram, has taken the Siege community by storm. Although Klar.gg's servers remain active and continue to support cheats for other games, Rainbow Six Siege is no longer listed among them. The news comes just two weeks after Klar.gg unveiled cheats for another major title: Fortnite.

Following the announcement, numerous players started sharing their Ranked experiences online, showcasing an environment that, at least for now, feels cleaner and fairer.
Community Reaction: A Mix of Optimism and Skepticism
The shutdown has been met with mixed reactions from the Siege community. On one hand, the general sentiment is one of excitement, with prominent figures like desk analyst and former G2 Esports analyst Jack “Fresh” Allen and Fnatic’s Leon “LeonGids” Giddens posting impressive post-Klar Ranked runs. Fresh shared his back-to-back seven wins on social media, while LeonGids revealed a winning streak of eight out of nine games. For these players and countless others, this moment feels like a rare victory in the fight against cheaters.
However, not everyone is optimistic. Some fans are wary, fearing that Klar’s exit might only be temporary or that the organization could re-emerge under a different name. One skeptical fan commented, “Sometimes they rug-pull and rebrand, only to sell the same cheats again. Even if Klar never returns, bad actors could reverse-engineer the cheats and bring them back under a different alias.”
Others speculate that Klar’s exit may not be complete, suggesting that the site might continue offering cheats privately, catering to “higher bidders.” While these claims are largely unverified, they underscore the trust issues that still persist in the community, even in the wake of Klar’s shutdown.

Klar.gg’s decision to halt Rainbow Six Siege cheats could be an important moment for Ubisoft, potentially paving the way for more aggressive actions against cheat manufacturers. This development aligns with Ubisoft’s recent Player Protection update, which revealed an overall reduction in cheating in Rainbow Six Siege compared to previous seasons. The timing couldn’t be better for the community, as players are now seeing Ranked mode as the perfect opportunity to enjoy a fairer competitive environment.
Ubisoft has yet to comment on Klar’s departure, but the shutdown sets an encouraging precedent. If a leading cheat provider like Klar.gg exits, it may signal the beginning of a downward trend for cheating in Rainbow Six Siege. This shift could also lead to a gradual increase in the game’s player base, as the promise of fairer gameplay could attract both returning and new players. On the flip side, it will be intriguing to see whether some players, who may have relied on cheats, stop playing altogether.
Overall, the Rainbow Six Siege community has high hopes. As one fan put it, “We’re going to see a huge drop in cheaters, and I think we have an opportunity now to really enjoy Siege. Hopefully, this will show in the player base.” For now, Ubisoft’s fight against cheaters is far from over, but Klar.gg’s unexpected exit is certainly a step in the right direction.
