Want to know when the Rainbow Six Extraction release date is? Previously known as Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Quarantine, Ubisoft puts cooperative play first in this PvE shooter. In teams of three, Extraction pits players against a deadly parasite that takes the form of a sticky black mould. This parasite is known as the Sprawl – if left unchecked, it can infect and kill humans.
Extraction borrows a number of core elements from Rainbow Six Siege, including the operators Ela and Vigil, who appeared in the first trailer back in 2019. The gameplay should feel familiar to anyone who has dabbled in Siege’s multiplayer, and we fully expect to see more Rainbow Six Siege operators become part of the game.
When describing the game for the first time, Ubisoft made it clear that you don’t have to be a Siege player to enjoy Extraction. This game may be a good way for new players to get to grips with a few of Siege’s mechanics, as players will use some of the same weapons, gadgets, and operators. Here’s everything we know about Rainbow Six Extraction so far.
Rainbow Six Extraction release date
The Rainbow Six Extraction release date is now January 20, 2022. Since its announcement, Extraction has seen a few delays, with the game initially slated for a 2020 release, but it’s been pushed back several times due to development challenges caused by the global pandemic. The most recent delay was from September 16, 2021.
You can take a look at the cinematic reveal trailer below, which introduces some of the Rainbow Six Extraction operators, as well as some of the monsters we’ll be fighting, alongside primary and secondary gadgets.
As for Rainbow Six Siege itself, the High Calibre release date is coming soon, with a new operator called Thorn joining the defence team with a new Rainbow Six Siege SMG and changes to UI and customisation.
