Rainbow Six Extraction Delayed to January 2022; Riders Republic Pushed to Oct. 28

Rainbow Six Extraction Delayed

Another game joins the “delayed into 2022” list today, as Rainbow Six Extraction has now been officially pushed back to “January 2022.” This announcement was made by Ubisoft in a new letter to fans by the Rainbow Six Extraction dev team.

Our ambition with Rainbow Six Extraction is to deliver a full-fledged AAA experience that changes the way you play and think about cooperative games. With unique features like Missing In Action or The Sprawl, every mission is set to be a tense and challenging experience in which you’ll lead the elite operators of Rainbow Six in a fight against a lethal and evolving alien threat.

We are embracing the opportunity to take additional time to bring this vision to life in the way it deserves in January 2022. We are confident this will ensure Rainbow Six Extraction is the immersive, cooperative, and thrilling experience we set out to create, and the one you aspire to play.

We look forward to sharing more with you very soon!

Another game delayed is Rider’s Republic, the sports-arcade game has been delayed as well, but only for a month and change.

We can’t wait for you all to hit the Republic in our upcoming beta! This will be the first time you get to go hands-on in this massive multiplayer playground and we are looking forward to hearing what you think.

To ensure we can deliver the best game for all players, we’ve made the tough decision to delay our release date from September 2 to October 28. This will give us more time to fine tune the experience and give you another chance to jump in before launch and provide feedback.

We’ll have more to share soon, so stay tuned!

Can’t say we’re really surprised given games are being pushed back left and right, which is understandable since most of the world is still fighting the on-going COVID-19 pandemic.
