The extraction shooter boom has been more of a poot than an explosion as of late. Creative Assembly's Hyenas laughed its last in late 2023, while Ubisoft's The Division Heartlands had a stake driven through it last year. Upcoming efforts Marathon and ARC Raiders have avoided the chop so far, but the lack of games making it to market, alongside the failures of those like Rainbow Six Extraction, proves this isn't an easy genre to nail. This hasn't deterred Vampire the Masquerade Bloodhunt developer Sharkmob, which is baring its fangs with the post-apocalyptic Exoborne. Having delved into the latest playtest, the studio's vision could not be clearer, and it could just whip up a storm.
