New details about Rainbow Six Extraction have been revealed
Ubisoft have released new details about Rainbow Six Extraction, the spin-off/sequel from Siege, where players will take control of one of the operators from Siege, but in all new maps, with all new enemies, weapons and more, check it out.
Players will deploy into 4 varied regions across the U.S., including New York, San Francisco, and two other regions, and face the alien threat in 12 all-new, unpredictable maps. Each map is roughly three times the size of previous Rainbow Six Siege maps, and contains unique dynamic modifiers, ensuring no incursion is ever the same. Tackle 13 different mission objectives during tactical incursions including one called ‘Gateway Objective’, in which players must face off against a Protean, a deadly Archæan variant that has adopted the form of REACT operators and mimics their behaviour
With 13 archetypes of dangerous Archæan variants, infestations, parasitic mutation challenges, numerous incursion types, and exciting new gameplay features including nests, spores, and Sprawl, Extraction also offers players who enjoy a challenge a thrilling gamble: extract and collect their rewards or go deeper into each map’s subzones, facing greater risks with richer rewards for those who make it out alive. If they fail to extract, their operator will go Missing in Action (MIA), but they have an opportunity to go back into the containment zone to rescue their downed operators. For players who enjoy a tougher challenge, there will be a feature-rich PVE system called Maelstrom Protocol, to be detailed at a later date.
As a bonus, players who play both Rainbow Six Siege and Rainbow Six Extraction will instantly unlock Extraction’s entire roster of 18 operators in Rainbow Six Siege and will receive the elite United Front cosmetic bundles in both games.
The game was due out this year, but got a slight delay to January 2022, in order to provide the more polish, in order to give players the best experience, even though, this is not a true Rainbow Six game.
When it does release it will hit most platforms, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC, via the Ubisoft+ program.
