RAINBOW SIX EXTRACTION – CINEMATIC LOADING SCREENS

WORK DESCRIPTION:

For Ubisoft's tactical co-op shooter Rainbow Six Extraction, STARNO was entrusted with a 5-month production mandate to create the atmospheric foundation of the player's journey. Our team developed 12 high-end cinematic loading screen environments, each meticulously designed to represent the specific containment zones where players execute their high-stakes missions.

The goal was to achieve a cinematic level of quality for these 12 locations, which were delivered as animated sequences featuring subtle, immersive camera movements. These visuals serve as the bridge between the tactical menu and the gameplay, setting a tense tone as players prepare to face the virulent extraterrestrial threat. Furthermore, STARNO produced over 30 detailed illustrations for the in-game menus, appearing as strategic cards that describe specific mission objectives, points of interest, and tactical tasks.

STORYLINE & CONTEXT:

Rainbow Six Extraction is a tactical FPS that pits elite operators against the Chimera parasite—an evolving alien organism. As part of the REACT (Rainbow Exogenous Analysis & Containment Team), players must enter infected zones to gather data and extract fallen comrades.
