If you're looking for a new game to play with friends--and one that involves fighting against parasitic alien lifeforms bent on world domination--Ubisoft's Rainbow Six Extraction might suit your very specific tastes. A spin-off of Rainbow Six Siege, Extraction tasks three-player squads with the investigation of the extraterrestrial Archaen threat. Teamwork and communication are vital to the success of a mission, while gunplay and other skills also factor into the equation.
Ahead of its release on January 20, reviews have gone live for Rainbow Six Extraction, with the majority of outlets calling it a solid start for Ubisoft's latest live-service experience, but one that will need some fine-tuning in the weeks and months to come. If your Xbox Game Pass subscription is up to date, you'll also be able to play the game through the Microsoft service.
