Ubisoft announced over the weekend that it would begin to issue bans against players using “racial and homophobic slurs, or hate speech” in Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege. In a post on the game’s subreddit, the developers said that these new consequences, including permanent bans, will only be levied against users on PC. Players on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One will continue to be subject to Sony and Microsoft’s own codes of conduct.

“We will be tracking the frequency at which language that violates the Code of Conduct is used by individual players,” Ubisoft said, referring to published guidelines that have been in place for some time, “and will apply the appropriate ban on a case-by-case basis.”
