Rainbow Six Extraction will be here soon, and humanity relies on you. The game was first spotted back at E3 2019, when it was teased by Ubisoft. Players will fight against some mutated creatures that are trapped inside a facility. For each mission, you will team up with two friends to get into one of these facilities. You will need to do rescue missions, data collection or getting rid of a specific creature. You will be able to choose an operator, but keep in mind that if you die in a mission, your operator will be trapped on the same map, and you will need to rescue him in your next mission.
