RainbowLeaks is an ARG for Ubisoft's competitive online multiplayer shooter Rainbow Six Siege. The ARG was discovered on November 20, 2017, starting with the RainbowLeaks website. At this point, the ultimate purpose of the ARG is unclear, although it has connections to the upcoming PVE content for Rainbow Six Siege, titled "Outbreak".
File 1
On November 20, 2017, a QR code was discovered on the Oregon map. In its original form, the QR code is unscannable; in order to be scanned, the empty space in the middle had to be filled with the correct pixels. In the center of the QR code, and to the side of the QR code, the characters C4 are repeated.
Completing the QR Code
The characters C4, found on the QR code itself, form one of the coordinate locations on the QR code grid that need to be filled in. Scattered throughout the map are other small bits of paper with other coordinates listed on them. Here is the complete list: (NOTE: many still missing! If you find any, join the Discord server and tell us!)
(G, 3)
(B, 1)
These coordinates were used to fill out the empty space in the middle of the QR code. Scanning the QR code leads to the following URL:

This website displays an image, with the following text in its center:
@rX9p]7'CKr-
Unlocking File 1
Underneath the QR code was a link to rainbowleaks.org. This website contained a password prompt:
Using the password @rX9p]7'CKr- (which was uncovered using the QR code) prompted the user to enter their Ubisoft credentials to log into the RainbowLeaks site. Doing so led to a page with the following text:
My Fellow Facters, we have an opportunity to get ahead of a lie before it becomes another cover-up. Truth or Consequences, New Mexico is experiencing an outbreak and the Feds are a little too quick to send “help,” almost like they’ve been prepared. We’ve managed to smuggle intel out of Truth or Consequences through an ARNG associate of the Manifest Destiny Militia. They share our distrust of FEMA and I can’t do this alone. We need all hands on deck here. So whatever your sources, whatever you can provide, share it here so we can all benefit from it. Here’s what we know so far: Truth or Consequences is suffering an outbreak of an undetermined nature. The CDC is front and center, and the National Guard is rendering assistance, but all the pieces fell in place way too easily. This has false flag written all over it, but who’s the bad guy here. So give me what you got… let’s add to this database before someone Jimmy Hoffa’s all the evidence.
There were also 4 pictures underneath:

At this time, it is unclear if these images have any further significance, but they appear to relate to the upcoming Outbreak event.
