Nov 7, 2025It's not often that you get the feeling that you want to descend into the "realm of loot" again and again, survive all the dangers once more, and return to your home planet with your pockets full. It has been a pleasure to play such a polished release, and I don't think the excitement will fade anytime soon.

Nov 9, 2025I can't believe I'm saying this in the same year we've had Expedition 33, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, and The Alters, but ARC Raiders is a real contender for Game of the Year.

Nov 13, 2025ARC Raiders exemplifies the strength of games where players craft their own narratives, taking advantage of the systems provided to foster pocket communities of robot-killing looters. While it is rife with complexity, Embark Studios uses smart onboarding, a striking visual identity, and tight third-person action to ease players into a budding sense of progression and growth. Though time makes fools of us all, it’s likely that ARC Raiders is here to stay.

Nov 3, 2025Arc Raiders follows in the footsteps of games such as Helldivers 2 to offer a complete, immersive multiplayer experience packed with detail and great creative decisions. This is a different kind of extraction shooter that lets you experience memorable matches and situations you never imagined.

Nov 7, 2025No extraction shooter stands out as much as ARC Raiders. The game can seem overwhelming at first as there isn't much direction, and the user interface feels like it's meant for a mouse and keyboard and not a controller. Once you leave Speranza and hop into the world, experience the atmosphere and the gunplay while meeting some people along the way, however, the experience quickly gets up to speed. If you're going solo, it's worth matchmaking and finding someone to lean on for certain things. The user interface offers small font with no direction and you'll miss key elements. The game runs and looks spectacular and offers a soundtrack that isn't from this universe. If you haven't tried an extraction adventure/shooter before and missed the boat on Helldivers 2, this is the one to get into.

Nov 24, 2025ARC Raiders delivers one of the most thrilling and chaotic extraction-shooter experiences of the year, complete with brutal gunplay, a frantic PvPvE loop and a post-apocalyptic world that always keeps you on edge. The menu complexity and occasional technical hiccups detract slightly, but don’t obscure just how addictive the core gameplay loop is. A must-play for fans of high-intensity multiplayer chaos.

Nov 14, 2025Enjoyment can be finely sliced off of ARC Raiders like edible shreds from a doner kebab smeared in shit. That these slivers are entirely dependent on its players is hardly a triumph of the base experience, which is generally boring, flavorless, and lacking much of a point. If not for one intensely fragile hook, this is a sub-mundane peashooting box breacher that, despite a lack of originality or quality gameplay, still needed help from an algorithm.
