Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction is a co-operative FPS with elements of horror and science-fiction on its side. Players and their allies will be tasked with yet another global threat, except the countering of terrorism is now being traded for countering a new, foreign, alien threat. More specifically, a lethal parasite that can mutate.

If you've seen any gameplay already, you'll know that Extraction looks to have lots of mutants and special effects happening on your screen a lot of the time. However, your PC is probably going to be able to run it regardless. If you're looking to find out whether the shooter can be run on your PC, we've got you covered!

In this guide, we explain the recommended PC specifications for Rainbow Six Extraction.
