"As an extraction shooter in which players must contend with threats from enemy AI as well as other players following their own agendas, Arc Raiders is primed to generate loads of unexpected emergent situations. It feels trite to say "you never know what's going to happen" in a match of Arc Raiders, but after about 50 hours with the game, it feels very true."
"While you may not feel very fast or mobile at first in Arc Raiders, investing in your "Mobility" skill tree dramatically improves how long you can run and how much of your stamina you hold onto while performing dodges, jumps and vaults. Here's one such example: What's all that jumping good for, I hear you ask? Well, hop on top of an Arc drone and find out, as in this example here:"
Arc Raiders is a PvPvE extraction shooter from Embark Studios that attracted over 300,000 concurrent Steam players on launch weekend. Players face threats from enemy AI and rival players while attempting extraction, producing unpredictable emergent moments and viral clips. Mobility skill trees enhance sprinting, stamina, dodging, jumping, and vaulting, enabling high-speed parkour and drone-riding maneuvers that create cinematic collisions and eliminations. The game design encourages experimentation, leading to improvised techniques and potentially game-altering exploits that may be patched. The launch environment generated widespread player anecdotes demonstrating both exhilarating and absurd in-match outcomes.
