Rainbow Six Extraction Trial Version

The Rainbow Six Extraction trial version has been causing some trouble as of late. This is a great shame, considering how the Buddy Token or Buddy Pass system has been one of the major early selling points of the game. Hopefully, that’ll pass soon. Meanwhile, in this guide, we’ll explain how the R6 Extraction trial version works, how to download it, and more.

Rainbow Six Extraction Trial Version

The trial version of R6 Extraction gives you access to four locales, three hot-zones for each of them, and the full Operator roster. However, it only gives you two hours to play, over the course of fourteen days. Two hours is next to nothing in this game. That’s where the Buddy Token system comes in. We’ve written about it in detail in our Rainbow Six Extraction Buddy Pass Explained guide, but here are the basics. One of your friends, who you’re also friends with on Ubisoft Connect, needs to buy the full game. You get the trial version. Join their squad, and from there, they can send you one of their two Buddy Pass tokens. That pauses the trial version timer and let’s you play for fourteen days, plus whatever you had left of the two hours.

How to Download Rainbow Six Extraction Trial Version

To download the the trial version of Rainbow Six Extraction, you just need to search your platform of preference for that version of the game, then simply download it. At least, that’s how the system is supposed to work. However, there doesn’t seem to be any way to find the trial version of R6 Extraction at the time of writing. This is likely due to the Buddy System getting pushed back to “ensure a smooth rollout,” according to this tweet. Even if that’s not the case, it’s still probably best to not start your trial version just yet, lest it runs out before you get to receive a Buddy Token from a friend. Why not get fourteen days instead of just two hours?
