After initially being known as Rainbow Six Quarantine, and making its gameplay reveal during the E3 Ubisoft Forward show last June, Ubisoft Montreal's Rainbow Six Extraction has finally released amid excitement from fans new and old of the beloved tactical shooter franchise. Here's a breakdown of whether or not Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction is single-player.

Is Rainbow Six Extraction Single-player?

With Rainbow Six Extraction being a bit of an unorthodox game genre for the series — a PvE co-op experience — it's no surprise that many are wondering whether or not the game is simply single-player.

As the latest installment of the Tom Clancy's series, Rainbow Six Extraction invites players to contain a growing alien threat known as Archæans, while also introducing new features and building on the tactical gameplay elements established in Rainbow Six Siege.

Ultimately, Rainbow Six Extraction fortunately supports both single-player and multiplayer.

Up to three players can form a squad from a pool of 18 Rainbow Six Siege operators who have joined Ash, Mira, and Thermite to form the Rainbow Exogenous Analysis Containment Team (REACT).

Each copy of Rainbow Six Extraction also includes a cross-platform Buddy Pass, which lets players who have access to the game invite two of their friends to play online co-op with them for up to 14 days even if they don’t own the game.

Rainbow Six Extraction is available now on Xbox Game Pass, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Stadia, Amazon Luna, and PC (via Epic Games Store and Ubisoft Connect) with cross-play and cross-progression support everywhere except on Amazon Luna.
