"If you and your team play well together, someday the stars may once again become beacons of hope, instead of harbingers of oblivion." A big changeĮven though this game was made by developers that worked at DICE, ARC Riders are not very similar to Battlefield games. We will have to implement our tactics on the fly, using the scenery and physics to our advantage whenever possible. Throughout the games, we will be able to explore the so-called "ruins of the past", which will provide us with tools and artifacts that will help us to finish off the enemy.

Fight, flee, and hone, work shoulder to shoulder with your squad". In addition, as we have said, the gameplay relies entirely on teamwork to emerge victorious: "Together you can defeat these faceless enemies.

With this project, the developers wanted to go further and give a twist to the third-person shooter genre: ARC Raiders aims to be more than just reloading a weapon with the corresponding ammunition, and aims to provide combat that will require users' creativity. When ARC is around, lone wolves never get very far." Users will get into the shoes of a squadron of Raiders, a rebel group that fights to protect their home from these enemies.Įmbark Studios wanted to emphasize the idea that this is a title to be enjoyed by teams: "As a Raider, you know that defeating ARC requires more than just aiming and firing a gun and more than just one person trying to be the hero. So, what is this game all about? About the gameĪRC Raiders takes players to what appears to be a post-apocalyptic world in the distant future, where the remnants of civilization must join forces against a common threat: ARC, "a mechanized and ruthless menace from space. But as usual, what matters the most is the people working there. So, we know that these developers have many years of experience developing some huge games in the past, but now that they are no longer in DICE, are they able to get the same results? It's not the same working with a well-established developer company than to go with a new, freshly starting one.

Of course, these developers are not new, and they used to work for DICE in some incredible games, but the company IS new, and Embark Studios, founded by Patrick Söderlund, is releasing ARC Riders. So, even though there are countless indie developers, it's nice to see mall developers working with the big names to bring something new into the game world. For a while, some of the most popular games have come from the same familiar faces, and it's hard to break into that scene when it's so well-established. It's incredibly refreshing to see new game IPs coming from new studios and new developers.
