Will Rainbow Six Siege's marketplace ever return?

On December 27, 2025, Ubisoft decided to turn down Rainbow Six Siege's marketplace following a major hacker attack that gave players free Renown and R6 Credits. Since then, updates about the marketplace have been limited; it has been almost a year and nothing has been revealed about the marketplace's future yet.

The marketplace was a great platform for Rainbow Six Siege players. It allowed the community to trade cosmetics for R6 Credits while Ubisoft took a small portion from every transaction. This gave players the option to sell skins they wouldn't use and later buy skins they actually wanted—funding their purchase with R6 Credits they obtained from marketplace sales.

Moreover, the marketplace gave players the chance to buy skins from bundles they never had the chance to acquire. It also gave players the chance to sell exclusive or limited items, such as esports skins obtained at Majors or the Six Invitational, or even Glacier cosmetics.

Although there are still no news about Rainbow Six Siege's marketplace, we can confidently say that the marketplace will return in the future—but not as we know it.

In recent months, Ubisoft have been selling the bundles of the skins that performed better in the marketplace. Ubisoft sold seasonal bundles from previous years, making these skins not limited anymore. In fact, Ubisoft have gone even further; they have been selling exclusive marketplace drops (which until recently only 5,000 players had access to) and even the extremely limited Mythical variant skins that players can only get in Delta Packs.

All of this combined with the recent changes made to the possibilities behind Renown, which can't be used to buy Event Packs anymore, has created a strange feeling in the Rainbow Six Siege community.

The marketplace will return to Rainbow Six Siege but in a different shape. Players should still be able to trade weapon skins for R6 Credits, but we believe Ubisoft will have more power on the transactions. More information is expected to be released in the next months; our best guess right now is that Ubisoft will reveal future plans for the marketplace at the Six Invitational 2027.
