"Arc Raiders successfully redefines the extraction shooter; itâs engaging despite diverging from its original co-op game design, appealing to a broader audience."
"The post-post-apocalypse setting in Arc Raiders elevates its theme, combining grim reality and optimism, fused with aesthetic influences of 70s and 80s sci-fi."
Arc Raiders, despite straying from its original pitch as a co-op game, emerges as a promising extraction shooter from Embark, a studio with seasoned developers from DICE. The game differentiates itself in the crowded genre landscape by prioritizing unique gameplay and a compelling narrative, rather than strict adherence to traditional gunplay. The post-post-apocalyptic setting strikes a balance between somberness and optimism, drawing inspiration from vintage sci-fi aesthetics. Following a successful platform like The Finals, early impressions hint that Arc Raiders may redefine conventions and satisfy gamers looking for fresh experiences.
