Rainbow Six Extraction review – top of its class (The Loadout)

The co-op shooter genre feels like it’s going through a bit of a resurgence lately, but, Rainbow Six Extraction, Ubisoft’s latest game isn’t a senseless horde slayer like Back 4 Blood, The Anacrusis, or Call of Duty Zombies. Instead, it takes the tactical gunplay from Rainbow Six Siege and merges it with an excellent, character-oriented layer of planning and strategy that makes Extraction stand out from its rivals.

It’s clear from the start that Extraction has been designed to be far more engaging and challenging than simply running through a map and killing everything in your path. You have to think about your approach, plan how to enter a room, and complete your objectives in the most effective way possible. Simply battling Rainbow Six Extraction’s Archaeans in open combat with a barrage of bullets is usually not a successful strategy and you’ll have to think on your feet if you want to survive. Ubisoft encourages tactical play by making clinical actions like takedowns and stealth kills through destructible surfaces award more XP than blowing an Archaean away with an unsilenced shotgun.

Good month. I recommend PS users to download R6 Extraction. It is seriously a really fun and polished co-op game.

Totally agree. The game got dragged in the review market but, get some friends together and it’s definitely worth a shot. It’s just as good with shooting mechanics as siege but no sweat lords to compete with

That's a crap ton of older good titles...some of which I never got to.

I’ve been holding out but I think when they start putting psvr 2 titles on there it’ll be my time to dive in

crazyCoconuts779d ago

I was thinking the same thing when I locked in on the deals they had during the last holiday season. I'm normally not a fan of subs but this was so cheap and the likelihood of them adding PSVR2 is pretty high imo. Hopefully within the next 6 months.

SullysCigar779d ago

It'll happen for sure at some point. They did OG PSVR titles on Plus before. Hopefully they'll be great games that flew under the radar, like The Light Brigade seems to be.

We did a radio segment on this recently. You have rising costs and lower sales and many in the industry think it could be a rough year. What seemed like a good idea when people were staying home is not so wise an investment now. Add to that rumors of hostile takeovers and labor unrest.

Microsoft is supposed to be doing a massive layoff tomorrow in the thousands too. Not sure how much will be in the gaming sector.

You’d think they’d realise that maybe relying on AC isn’t such a good idea after all

It’s like they got so used to it they thought they could ride that wave forever

What should've happened years ago, EA should be next

PapaBop835d ago

Honestly, I couldn't care less. Ubi have been trend chasing for too long and their sub par open world games have become so stale. A radical shake up wouldn't be a bad idea going forward, the last Ubi game I bought was Division 2 and didn't last five hours on that before I got bored.

Ubi deserves to go under. They’ve run Tom Clancy name through the mud and trashed every good franchise they own.

Rebel_Scum835d ago

Immature opinion. You’re saying thousands of people deserve to lose their job. How about writing a comment on how they can improve rather than what you said.

RaveTears835d ago

There no point talking how to improve Ubisoft, if they don’t want to improve themselves. As long Guillemot family is in charge, they going to keep destroying their Franchise by making it a live service, empty open world, rpg elements that are time waster, adding NFT and follow trend once is dying.

FPS_D3TH835d ago

What’s the point? People have been telling Ubisoft that they want Sam Fisher to come back for years but Ubi would rather attempt to chase trends for money instead. Ubi is tone deaf and honestly so are the employees if they don’t recognize the state of the studio they work for

Zombieburger638834d ago

I’m better off talking to a rock than trying to get Ubisoft to take literally any advice. Ubisoft wants to be like 343 and shit on its fans but we’ve seen how well that’s worked out.
