Ubisoft has delayed two major September releases. Both Rainbow Six Extraction and Riders Republic will not make the release date previously announced, the company shares in a separate blog post on Friday. Initially scheduled to come out on September 16, Ubisoft now planned to release extraction in January 2022. Meanwhile, it has pushed Republic reposs from September 2 to October 28.
From both, extraction is a more significant delay given the popularity of Rainbow Six Siege and the period of time involved. “Our ambition with the Rainbow Six Extraction is to provide a complete AAA experience that changes the way you play and think about cooperative games,” Ubisoft said. “We embrace the opportunity to take extra time to bring this vision to live in the way it is worthy of January 2022. We believe this will ensure the rainbow six extraction is a deep, cooperative, and thrilling experience that we make, and what you aspire to played. “
As for the last game, Ubisoft said the delay would “give us more time to perfect the experience and give you another chance to jump before launching and giving feedback.” At the Ubisoft Forward event in June, the company said the player would get the opportunity for the defublic test beta before the release.
No delay is the first for Rainbow Six Extraction and Riders Republic. The last initially should come out at the beginning of 2021. However, extraction has been more complicated development. Ubisoft first announced the game at E3 2019, at which point is known as Rainbow six quarantine. At that time, it was supposed to come out in 2020, but then it didn’t happen. Ubisoft then didn’t talk much about the game until it was revealed considering a name change.
