Hunt Showdown, The Cycle, Helldivers

    The Cycle yes, but an extraction shooter is defined as a game you loot items that you then extract with to use in future runs or sell. Hunt and Helldivers doesn't have that mechanic at all.

    You can make the argument that Helldivers is more of a mission based shooter, and many people will agree with you.

    Hunt is absolutely an extraction shooter. You take gear into a raid, fight other players, collect money and even their guns, fight a boss and collect the bounty when you extract.
