r/R6Extraction

Screw it. I'm going to start something, firstly on X and if It gets traction I'm willing to branch out onto other socials such as tiktok. #ReviveRainbowSixExtraction

I invite others who are passionate about this game and it's lore, despite the terrible rep it got, it still deserves a chance because players such as myself enjoy it. PvE games are fun and a good break from PvP, and with Siege mechanics and lore it's 10x more fun and being a day 1 Outbreak player when that event came out, it's a shame they didn't just keep to that dark grittyness and turned them blue.

I digress. Each day I will post the hashtag on X for now and then I would like to branch out onto tiktok. If anyone has other ideas where I can spread the word please feel free to let me know. The goal is to reach to the community and content creators, and obviously ubisoft.

I look forward to seeing you gamers in game, and spreading the word o7

Edit: If @KudosOnYT can see this.. It would be an honor for you to join in and see what we can do to let Extraction have it's second chance.

Maybe this is just copium, but I think Extraction deserves a chance to be revived by ubisoft. Hell if Siege can be revived so can Extraction. 4 years have passed and maybe ubisoft is in a relatively okay spot to revive an R6 Ip. I dont know how that works with a company just magically reviving a video game they didnt care about and dropped but I will always be inhaling that massive tank of copium.

Maybe if we can get some content creators to show some movement for Extraction, my highest hope is for Kudos, or if players are willing to play again for like a community revival.

Obviously Im a small singular voice for the sub ~100 players active a week (im just assuming) and I don't see very many people with the same sentiment as I do. This game is still very fun and I would love to see this game get updated and expanded on.

Let me know your thoughts, I'd appreciate civil discussion on this matter.

Had a thought

I've been thinking the past couple days, did a few surveys about people's thoughts on Extraction and did some research.

Let's be realistic and before I go on, I still think the game has a chance on coming back but it's very very slim. With Ubisoft currently in a bad financial state recently and many layoffs and the creative focus shifting to their bigger IPs, Extraction won't even be considered until possibly late 2026 or early 2027 if we're being generous.

What will help for the long run from us as a team of a community, let's keep positive talks about the game, posting content such as guides, or just fun gameplay, and keep voicing our support and giving ideas for fixing the game out of limbo. Good steady movement even if it's super small could definitely mean something to the big U. (Ubisoft)

To start, I think a good reinvestment is changing Extraction to F2P with incentives. Hate to say it, but a battlepass would work well too, we are all victims to it one way or another. As well as porting skins between Siege and Extraction would attract more players, a shared battlepass, and some other people have voiced this, with Ubisoft axeing Dual Front from Siege (classic lmao) this could open up a chance to port Extraction or even reintroduce Outbreak from 2018. Or maybe bring back the Containment event in Siege for a month, while introducing a shared event pass to earn cosmetics in both Siege and Extraction, gauging player interests. This COULD have worked when they added the Hivemind Sets for Nomad and Vigil, but they marketed it poorly and players thought the Vigil skin was in SIEGE, but instead it was for Extraction. Obviously they've done it before, they just need to execute it properly.

Either way, Rainbow Six Extraction will be officially dead once the servers are shut down so I for one, will keep talking about it whether the doomers like it or not.

Always will Love to hear other thoughts for fixes and changes down below 🙌

Looking for teammates!

Hi guys!

I’ve just completed New York 100% and am at Milestone 11 (almost 12).

I was trying to start San Francisco and waited in queue for more than an hour trying to get match.

Does anybody wanna squad up? I’m on PlayStation (PS5) and based in Canada!

Lmk!

New mods are in order

Unfortunately, our current moderator team has stepped away from interacting with the community and listening to player feedback. While Extraction no longer receives live-service updates, the remaining player base is incredibly passionate and deserves a forum that reflects that loyalty.

Bringing in new, active moderators would completely transform this space. New mods could actively engage with players, organize weekly events, and help promote the game to outsiders so it finally gets the second chance it deserves. I would love to hear your recommendations on who could be the new mods i think u/GunBoots21 and u/Professional_Week_88 as they interact and always try to keep the subreddit alive any other recomendations
