This Rainbow Six Extraction guide details what Research Studies are, how to track progress, and how you can unlock more tiers.
What are Research Studies in Rainbow Six Extraction?
Research Studies are optional objectives for you to complete. There are 10 sets of three Research Studies in each region, and you must complete all three objectives in a set before the next tier becomes available. You will repeat this process to unlock all of the Research Studies in Rainbow Six Extraction.
You can view the active Research Studies in the Play tab. Select a zone and then open the Studies menu. These are typically pretty simple, requiring that you kill a certain number of a specific enemy or utilize a piece of equipment in a certain way.
After you finish an incursion, return to this menu to claim each reward. This will give you a small amount of information on the results, award the bonus XP, and unlock any cosmetics tied to the specific Study.
The Play tab will also display Research Study progress. The percentage displayed above the name of a region corresponds directly to your progress. Reach 100% and your analysis in an area is finished. You do not need to complete a specific amount of Research Studies to advance to new areas. Those are tied to your progression level, and unlock as you play the game.
