Rapid Recovery 6.5 and VMWare ESXi 5.5 Create VM

Looking to upgrade my cores to RR 6.5 for VMWare ESXi 7.0 support. I still have a ESXi 5.5 cluster in my environment. I use agent based backups for all my servers. Only process i would need the core to be able to do on ESXi is create virtual standby or VM export to create a VM from a backup in case of a server failure. I realize 5.5 is out of support and Quest wont help with issues. My question is, will RR 6.5 connect correctly to ESXi 5.5 to create the VMs as needed. The ESXi is a full license (not free)
