ARC Raiders, a free-to-play cooperative third-person shooter by Embark Studios, was announced tonight at The Game Awards. The game will have players uniting to resist the onslaught of a ruthless mechanized threat from space called ARC.
In ARC Raiders, you’ll play as a member of a rogue group of resistance fighters called Raiders. Your job is to protect your home planet against enemies that drop down from orbit.
You’ll be able to wield powerful tools and gadgets to outsmart these intruders, using on-the-fly tactics to your advantage.
The official website also shares a wealth of information about each of the Raiders you’ll meet in the game, such as Celeste and Lance, and weapons you’ll be using. It also shows off Rollerbot, an ARC that is described as “a vicious ball of pain.” You can read about each of those things right here.
ARC Raiders will release in 2022 for PC via the Epic Games Store and Steam, Playstation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. You can add the game to your Epic Games or Steam wishlists now.
