Release:16.09.2021
Platforms:Windows PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X
In short: yes. Rainbow Six Extraction offers crossplay, cross-save (cross-platform storage) and Cross progression (cross-platform progress) between consoles as well as Ubisoft Connect, PC and cloud streaming platforms.
So you can not only play together with friends on different platforms, but also transfer your save status and your progress to any platform.
To get a first impression of the cooperative shooter, check out the following gameplay trailer:
Are there single players?
The cooperative shooter supports up to 3 players at the same time, however you can also play the missions alone or offline.
Important: However, if you want to play solo, you should note the following: Rainbow Six Siege is actually designed for a squad of 3 players. It is not yet known whether and how the level of difficulty changes or adjusts when you play alone. So it could be much more difficult to do the missions alone.
Are there split screens in Rainbow Six Siege?
In a nutshell: Nope! Unfortunately, you cannot sit on the sofa with your loved ones and fight the alien threat together on the split screen. You only have the option to play together online.
However, as already mentioned above, you can form a squad of up to 3 players online and put together a suitable team from the 18 available operators.
Rainbow Six Extraction is due to be released on January 20, 2022 for Playstation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X | S and PC. As a subscriber to the Xbox Game Pass, you can even look forward to it, because once the game is released, it will be included in your subscription.
