"Created by Swedish developer Embark Studios, Arc Raiders is an extraction shooter: an online multiplayer game that drops you into a world with other people to search for valuable weapons and items before attempting to escape with all your spoils. You can play alone or with up to two friends in a squad. Most extraction shooters feature two types of gameplay: Player vs Environment (PvE), which means exploring the world and fighting computer controlled enemies,"
"In Arc Raiders, you don't have to fight everyone you meet: in fact human raiders rarely attack each other, choosing to band together instead. The game gives you a few stock phrases to shout such as don't shoot!, or you can plug in a mic, chat to strangers you meet and form alliances. What's the story? Arc Raiders is set on a post-apocalyptic Earth in the distant future."
Arc Raiders launched last October and sold 12 million copies within three months, matching player numbers of major shooters like Counter-Strike 2 and Apex Legends. The game is an extraction shooter from Embark Studios that places players in multiplayer raids to scavenge valuable weapons and items and then escape with their spoils. Players can play solo or in squads of up to three. Gameplay mixes PvE encounters with computer-controlled enemies and potential PvP confrontations, though human raiders often cooperate instead of fighting. The setting is a post-apocalyptic Earth invaded by a robotic alien force named Arc, with survivors living underground in a city called Toledo. Characters earn experience to improve survival, looting, and movement abilities.
