Whether playing alone or with two others, Arc Raiders plays the same yet refreshingly differently than classic extraction shooters. This makes the game appealing to casual and hardcore gamers alike.

Embark Studios redefines the extraction shooter genre with Arc Raiders, their new title featuring breathtaking visuals, a larger-than-life environment, and most importantly, a fun gameplay loop.
With slick gun play, considered movement, an addictive risk vs reward game play loop and oodles of style, this is a high quality extraction shooter. It isn't perfect, but with a few patches and a heavily populated roadmap of future content, Arc Raiders has the potential to be the pinnacle of the genre.
ARC Raiders hits where it truly matters for a cooperative survival game: enemies that think, react, and punish every mistake. The thrill of facing the machines and managing to escape with what you’ve found is what gives each match its weight — and the game delivers that experience exceptionally well.

Arc Raiders will continue to grow with new content and updates, but this is a competent and complete experience at launch.
The biggest shock for me has to be the fact that I never pictured myself ever thinking that an extraction shooter could be my multiplayer game of the year. Yes, I am crowning ARC Raiders as the best multiplayer game that I’ve played all year. It’s a hard recommendation to those looking for a new extraction shooter, and especially those looking to get into the genre. It’s such a fresh and, dare I say, innovative take on the genre. It’s something you see happen to a genre only once in a while, something that changes the landscape entirely. I really think ARC Raiders is THE extraction shooter the genre has been waiting for, and I am excited to see how it influences extraction games in the years to come.
"A daring collective experience in a shattered world" ARC Raiders sets a new standard for multiplayer extraction games, blending cinematic realism with tactical tension. Despite a few minor glitches in controls and sound, it delivers a polished and completely different experience from what's typical in the genre.

Despite being mired in controversy for dabbling in what may or may not be considered generative AI, Embark Studios has pushed through the muck to come out with one of the more inviting extraction shooters the genre has ever seen.
Embark Studios hit the mark by delivering an intense, strategic, and adrenaline-fueled experience. The complete focus on PvPvE works very well, combining exploration, survival, and constant tension, both against relentless machines and against other players hungry for loot and opportunities.

Arc Raiders is going to continue to grow, evolve, and become a beast of its own as the team is set on providing a wealth of engaging content. Players will obviously play to what they want from it, and that means either fighting alongside some random Raiders, huddled around the elevator as threats emerge from all sides, or taking on those intent on gunning you down. Its opening barrage of maps is outstanding, and the loop is wildly addictive. Embark Studios has easily released the new measuring stick for the genre and released one of the best games of the year in the process.
ARC Raiders is truly special. Every run is an emotional rollercoaster as you go from rags to riches and back again, but the highs are so high that the next run is impossible to resist. If there’s any justice in the world, ARC Raiders is the next world-conquering shooter.
Thanks to Arc Raiders, it feels like we're entering a new era of live service multiplayer games marked not by competitive min-maxing and meta build optimization, but by authentic human interaction and community-driven storytelling.
ARC Raiders is recommended because it is an innovation within the extraction shooter genre, with an overwhelming identity. A title that stands out for its setting, its audiovisual design, and the way it makes each player feel every step, every shot, and every decision. It is demanding, yes, but also fair. It remains to be seen how it will evolve in the long term, but what it offers at launch is already more than enough to place it among the most outstanding multiplayer games of the year.

ARC Raiders is truly a gem in a genre of games that tend to be mediocre and solely focused on the most brutal and cruel PvP possible. It's as fun as the others, if not more, and even boasts a few new systems, though not a revolution. It also boasts surprisingly high graphics and narrative quality, despite costing about half the price of a current AAA title. It's certainly a quality product that could likely become the new industry standard.
