This game genre has been about for a few years now. However, it is only recently that the genre has somewhat exploded in popularity, thanks to games such as Escape From Tarkov. Online extraction games are built on the idea of PVP or PVE. The ultimate goal is entering a somewhat hostile and risky environment with enough valuable loot to help you extract even better loot. The end goal is the accumulation of the best loot in the game.
