Arc Raiders boss promoted to Nexon chief backs AI push for "redesigning game development" after building a hit "at a fraction of the cost you'd expect for a AAA game"

Arc Raiders character grimacing.

A newly released capital markets briefing from publisher Nexon features extensive comments from Patrick Söderlund, CEO of Arc Raiders developer Embark Studios and newly appointed Nexon executive chairman. Söderlund discusses a renewed focus on efficiency, applying Embark's production lessons to the Nexon collective where possible, and, in his own words, "a topic you've heard about from every company this year: AI."

Beneath a slide titled, "Redesigning Game Development," remarks from Söderlund insist that "every company has a plan" for AI but "most will get it wrong."
