Formerly titled Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Quarantine, Rainbow Six
Extraction is being led by a seasoned team of veterans at Ubisoft
Montreal.** Inspired by the long-standing legacy of co-op Rainbow
Six shooters, Rainbow Six Extraction is a brand new tactical co-op
PvE experience bringing operators together to fight against a
mysterious threat.
Three years ago, in the quaint town of Truth and Consequences, a
meteor crashed down on a New Mexico community, releasing an unknown
parasite. A handful of operators from Rainbow Six Siege seemingly
contained the initial outbreak – until the Chimera parasite
reappeared in multiple sites across the U.S., deadlier than ever.
To take on this threat, the Rainbow Exogenous Analysis &
Containment Team (REACT), a highly specialized and outfitted
organization was formed by Eliza “Ash” Cohen, Dr. Elena “Mira”
Álvarez, and Jordan “Thermite” Trace.
In Extraction, players will join the REACT Team and assemble a
one to three-player squad of well-known and beloved operators from
Rainbow Six Siege to confront mysterious alien creatures known as
the Archæans. After completing each objective, players must make a
difficult choice: extract and collect their rewards or push deeper
to face tougher enemies and earn greater rewards in a chaotic and
intense experience. This gamble could mean temporarily losing one
of their operators who are caught Missing in Action (MIA) within
the containment zone. To recover an MIA operator, players must
squad up and risk it all in a rescue mission.
Choose from 18 Rainbow Six operators, each equipped with
specialized REACT gear, weapons, gadgets, and abilities to learn
and master, lending to highly replayable and immersive gameplay.
The uniqueness and different playstyle of each operator allows for
limitless options in customizing a roster; striking the right
balance on each REACT squad will be the key to success. Deploying
into unpredictable containment zones with strategic loadouts will
be integral to gathering the intel needed to stop the alien
threat.
Set in four regions across the U.S., containment zones are
aggressively dominated by the parasite, creating an evolving and
unstable ecosystem within their walls. With a selection of 12
uniquely designed maps featuring plenty of challenges,
infestations, and enemies who increase in difficulty, the dangers
are constantly evolving. The deeper players go into each map, the
richer the rewards, but greater the risks their squad will
face.
Players who own and play both Rainbow Six Siege and Rainbow Six
Extraction will instantly unlock the entire roster of 18 operators
in Rainbow Six Siege, and players will receive the elite United
Front cosmetic bundles in both games.*** The Standard Edition and
Deluxe Edition of Rainbow Six Extraction are available for

receive the Orbital Decay bundle with exclusive Epic items,
including the Orion uniform and headgear for Finka and Lion, the
