What scares me? In real life, the answer to this is heights and octopuses, but when it comes to videogames there's nothing quite as scary as a robot: inhuman metal enemies that can soak up an unknown amount of punishment and just keep on coming.
It's robots that are the scariest thing you'll face in Arc Raiders, an upcoming PvPvE extraction shooter set in a post apocalyptic future where a robotic menace has driven mankind deep underground, only emerging to seek out supplies from the ruined world above. It's the latest game from The Finals developer Embark Studios, and it feels like it could be a perfect mainstream entry point for the extraction genre, with several good ideas and a distinct visual style that make it stand out.
