All Rainbow Six Extraction known issues and bugs at launch

Rainbow Six Extraction (formerly known as "Quarantine") finally launched on 20th January and is a spin-off title to Rainbow Six Siege. The game offers a co-op PvE experience for up to three players. Friends or other random people online will work together to eliminate parasite-like aliens called the Archaeans.

Similarly to most online games, it should be expected that there would be at least some problems at launch. Indeed, this is the case with Rainbow Six Extraction. Fortunately, there are no major game-breaking issues like in Warzone Pacific or Battlefield 2024, but there is still a few annoying bugs and glitches hindering players' experience.

Perhaps the most remarkable problem is that some players cannot launch the game on laptops with integrated Nvidia GPUs. However, other issues are more or less manageable, and Ubisoft is actively working on fixing them.
