Announced during Ubisoft’s E3 presser, Rainbow Six: Siege diverges from the traditional Tom Clancy games in that there is less focus on story, and more emphasis on multiplayer. Featuring five-on-five showdowns between the Rainbow team and the terrorists they are after.

The series has been absent for some time, with the last console-based entry in the franchise being 2008’s Rainbow Six: Vegas 2. The wait may have been worth it, as Siege received praise from fans and critics alike, picking up 4 nominations for Best of E3. We had a chance to play the game at E3, and you can read more about Rainbow Six: Siege in our hands-on preview.

In addition to the livestream, Ubisoft is also showing off a new trailer for the game.  The trailer shows off the impressive destructible environments and is a more cinematic showing of the demo unveiled at E3. The game is still some time from completion, coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC sometime in 2015.

Rainbow Six Extraction: How to grind XP fast
A squad looks at a red alien spore in Rainbow Six Extraxction.

The loop of Rainbow Six Extraction is very different from the game it's based on, Rainbow Six Siege. Instead of everything resetting between rounds, Rainbow Six Extraction has permanent progression and unlocks that allow you and your squad to take on the game's tougher difficulty levels a bit easier. Each Operator in the game has their own individual level, with gear and skills to unlock as you get more XP, but you also have an overall level. These are both important to increase, but the game isn't always generous with dishing out XP.

You only start with nine of the 18 Operators in Rainbow Six Extraction and have to unlock the rest via leveling up. Additionally, the Operators you do have all have individual levels that need to be raised by using them. That would be simple enough, but because you can't always use the same Operator all the time, you will want to maximize how much XP you get while they are fit and ready for action. We've scanned all the intel and made a safe extraction to bring you the best ways to grind XP fast in Rainbow Six Extraction.
