Is Rainbow Six Extraction coming to Game Pass?

The wait is finally over for Rainbow Six fans, as Rainbow Six Extraction is releasing on 20th January 2022.

This tactical co-op first-person shooter is a spin-off of Rainbow Six Siege, in which you and other players will join forces in an effort to overcome an alien invasion.

Rainbow Six Extraction is a PvE co-op experience for squads of up to three players, where you and your teammates are taking roles as one of the 18 operators from Siege and going on dangerous-but-exciting missions, known as "incursions".

On these missions, you will need to complete three randomly selected objectives (out of 12 available), while fighting your way through dangerous hordes of aliens known as the "Archaeans".

Rainbow Six Extraction is priced at $39.99, which is a fair price, but you can also play it for "free" and here's how.
