Rainbow Six Extraction just got a significant discount, well before its release on Jan. 20, 2022.
Originally a full-price release at $60 USD, Rainbow Six Extraction is now only $40 USD. Ubisoft made the price-cut announcement on Thursday out of nowhere. Anyone that picks Rainbow Six Extraction up will also get two “buddy passes,” which grant a free 14 day trial to anyone that redeems a pass. An excellent way to rope-in friends that might not be interested in picking up the game until they try it, for sure.
If you happened to pre-order Rainbow Six Extraction before the price cut, Ubisoft is refunding the $20 difference. So this is a win for everyone!

Ubisoft hasn’t given a reason for the discount at all. No reason to fret about it, though — it might just be due to the staggering amount of massive releases coming out in early 2022. For example, Elden Ring and Horizon Forbidden West are releasing only a week apart from each other. Which is bad news for anyone keen on using sick days for, you know, actually being sick!
It’ll be interesting to see if Rainbow Six Siege fans latch onto Extraction at all. Unlike Siege, Extraction is more of a PvE co-op affair similar to Back 4 Blood.
