1. Retry Connecting to Game Servers

You should try exiting the game by clicking or selecting ‘OK’ and then launching the game again. Sometimes retrying to connect to the game server may come in handy. Try it multiple times to ensure there is no server queue or connectivity issue troubling you.

2. Check your Internet Connection

You’ll require a high-speed and stable internet connection to smoothly run the Rainbow Six Extraction game on your gaming device. Sometimes issues with the internet stability or DNS-related issues may cause server connectivity glitches while launching the game. If you’re using a wired ethernet connection then make sure to switch it to the Wi-Fi connection or vice versa to check for the issue.

3. Check for Game Server Status

It seems that the Rainbow Six Extraction game servers are either down or going through a maintenance process while you’re trying to get into the game. Make sure to check for the game server status by visiting the official Ubisoft Support Twitter handle and DownDetector webpage to keep track of Rainbow Six Extraction.

4. Disable VPN

Make sure to disable VPN while launching and playing the Rainbow Six Extraction game on the PC or gaming consoles. Otherwise, you may face server connectivity issues in most scenarios depending on the region or connectivity.

5. Use Google DNS Addresses

Make sure to use a Google DNS address (public DNS) to ensure there is no server connectivity issue with the game. Sometimes issues with your blocked DNS address that has been provided by the ISP may have some issues. To do this:

For PC:

Press the Windows + R keys to open up the Run dialog box.
Type ncpa.cpl and click on OK to open the Network Connections page.
Now, right-click on your active network adapter > Click on Properties.
Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) > Click on Properties.

Click to select Use the following DNS server addresses.
Now, enter 8.8.8.8 for the Preferred DNS server and 8.8.4.4 for the Alternate DNS server.
Once done, click on OK to save changes.
Make sure to restart your computer to apply changes.

For PlayStation:

Go to the Settings menu on the PS4/PS5 console.
Select Network > Select Set Up Internet Connection.
Select WiFi/LAN (according to your internet network) > Select Custom.
Choose to Automatic for IP Address Settings.
Select Do Not Specify for DHCP Host Name.
Choose to Manual for DNS Settings.
Now, enter 8.8.8.8 for Primary DNS and 8.8.4.4 for Secondary DNS.
Select Automatic for MTU Settings and Do Not Use for Proxy Server.
Finally, finish the setup process, and make sure to reboot the system to apply changes.

For Xbox:

Open the guide menu by pressing the Xbox button on your controller.
Select Profile & system > Hit Settings.
Hit General > Select Network settings.
Choose to Advanced settings from the Network screen options.
Select DNS settings > Select Manual.
Enter the DNS settings 8.8.8.8 for primary and 8.8.4.4 for secondary addresses.
Once done, reboot the Xbox console to apply changes.

6. Reboot the System

It’s also recommended to simply exit the game and restart the system of the PC or console to check whether the problem is still bothering you or not. A normal reboot of the system can fix temporary glitches or cache data issues whatsoever.

7. Repair Game Files (PC)
