![]() ![]() It adds a fun supernatural twist to the tried-and-true shooter mechanics you might have been playing for years. While it feels more like an expansion pack than a brand new game, the reasonable price point justifies the purchase for the several hours you'll no doubt be playing this with others online - especially for fans of Rainbow Six Siege universe. Plus you can play on your own, if you like, but it's not as much fun. Still, it's a fun and frenetic co-op team shooter - that delivers thrills, spills, and chills. The objectives are also limited, and repetitive, which also hurts its replay factor. The biggest issue, though, is the alien enemies aren't too smart, and there's no option for humans to control the aliens, which is a huge oversight. This is one of the highlights of the game, because you'll need to keep an eye on incoming attacks from both the tree and other aliens while one of your teammates pulls out your MIA colleague. ![]() ![]() These hapless operatives are protected in a yellowish cocoon and set in part of an Archaean tree, which you need to rip them out of while it tries to suck him or her back in at the same time. And the necessity to go back to rescue a downed teammate is exhilarating, to say the least. For instance, a "screaming" Archaean will alert nearby nests to explode into additional threats you need to take care of. ![]() (Instead of Rainbow Six operatives, the soldiers in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction are members of REACT, to ward off aliens, but you get the idea.) Unlike other Rainbow Six games which are grounded in realism, this sci-fi spin on the formula has a "fear factor," too with maps set in relatively tight quarters against a variety of aliens and hazards. This is a fun game that will especially appeal to fans of Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege as it fuses familiar game mechanics with a new enemy. Adding extra pressure to this cooperative (co-op) shooter is rescuing an incapacitated teammate and taking them back to the extraction point - or else you won't be able to add them to your roster in future missions until you go back to retrieve them. But unlike other shooters, this is a much more slower-paced and tactical action game, along with many more gadgets to use (sentry guns, a mini recon drone on wheels) and the ability to break through some walls to peek inside, barricade entrances, and other nuances. There are three primary goals per mission - like taking out a target, rescue someone, and defending an area - out of a total of a dozen. These parasites have invaded earth, so you're tasked with assembling your 3-person team, entering various "hot zones" (including locations in NYC, San Francisco, and Alaska) and performing missions while trying staying alive, rack up points, collect goodies, and clear the area. Featuring the same characters, weapons and abilities as the hit 2015 game, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege, gamers now band together in a squad with other elite operatives to take down a common enemy known as the Archaeans. Rather than facing off against terrorist groups and other human threats, TOM CLANCY'S RAINBOW SIX EXTRACTION pits humankind against an alien enemy in a new multiplayer-focused first-person shooter. ![]()
