TFW you have F’d around, and then found out.
Arc Raiders is not a game that immediately reveals all to its players. Much of the experience in its early hours is cautiously sussing out where to find good loot and how and when to fight or avoid the Arc robots that patrol the surface. The tentative peaceful relationships formed with other raiders are just as key. The ambiguity of not knowing what they’ll do feeds into the tension and uncertainty that keeps expeditions exciting.
That’s the overarching vibe, at least. But there are other things Arc Raiders makes abundantly clear. For instance: the Leaper.
Embark Studios could have named this four-legged, spidery walking robot, one of the first truly serious threats you’ll encounter on the surface, anything.
