On December 11, players in Europe, North America, and much of the rest of the world will have to have 2SA enabled to keep playing ranked. You’ll still have access to Situations, Terrorist Hunt, and casual modes if you don’t sign up, but competitive play will be out.

If you haven’t yet added two step authentication to your account, you can find instructions on how to do so via the official site. You can still get that free Thermite bundle for signing up, too, which includes the Ride or Die headgear, Compatriot uniform, and Cyberfriend weapon skin. This’ll be your last chance to pick up the bundle as part of the promotion, but you’ll still get it as long as you’re secured by December 11.

Ubisoft’s efforts against Rainbow Six Siege cheaters have been a major priority this year, and that’s resulted in some massive ban waves. This 2SA requirement will help keep hackers using compromised accounts from coming into the game, and should further help reduce the appearance of cheaters in competitive modes.
