As with any successful multiplayer game, Arc Raiders has attracted a number of bad apples and cheaters over the last few months, but developer Embark Studios' boss says he can tell the company's anti-cheat efforts are bearing fruit by the amount of people "trying to get to the studio."
"We have been pretty aggressive on this," Embark CEO Patrick Soderlund tells IGN of the developer's anti-cheat measures. "The game wasn't prone to so many cheaters in the beginning, but as with all multiplayer games that get successful, this becomes a component, unfortunately. For us as developers, just like a DDoS attack, it's one of these things that you just have to try and be a step ahead."
