Arc Raiders is set in a near-futuristic Italy, so in a sense it's no grand surprise that a real hotel shares a name with the map Stella Montis, notorious among raiders as a hive for PvP, ratting, and every other form of player skullduggery. After learning that Arc Raiders players had besieged the Stella Montis hotel with reviews parodying their experience with the game, CEO Patrick Söderlund of developer Embark Studios says he'd like to "apologize."
Speaking with IGN, Söderlund said he hadn't actually heard of this hotel review trend: "I'm reading them now. I see. 'I don't recommend this for solo players' [laughs]. I didn't know about that. That's amazing. I feel sorry for the poor hotel, though. I'll probably have to call them and apologize."
