The Week In Games: Another Week, Another Co-Op Shooter

Remember last week, when a Left 4 Dead-like shooter released? The Anacrusis. Well, guess what, this week sees another take on the very popular co-op shooter formula releasing for multiple platforms. This time it’s Ubisoft’s Rainbow Six Extraction which looks… fine.

I actually played a nice chunk of The Anacrusis with some fellow Kotaku folks and had a blast with it. It’s early and you can feel that, but what’s there is very good. Still, I’m not sure I need another co-op shooter so quickly after we just got one. Sure, Extraction looks more dark and tactical, but I’m just not sold on it. But, like Anacrusis, it’s coming to Game Pass at launch so I’ll give it a shot.
