Arc Raiders dev Embark Studios confirms co-founder is gone after allegations of misconduct with The Finals streamer: "We found the situation unsustainable and mutually agreed to part ways"

Arc Raiders.

Arc Raiders and The Finals developer Embark Studios says it has "mutually agreed to part ways" with CCO Rob Runesson after allegations that he engaged in misconduct with a The Finals streamer. Runesson was one of the numerous Dice veterans who co-founded Embark Studios. The studio says an external legal investigation "did not substantiate the allegations," but adds that "we found the situation unsustainable."

Those allegations were made public last month, when they were read on Twitch by The Finals streamer Balise, as IGN reports. The allegations come from an anonymous source who said that they had been in contact with another streamer of The Finals. This streamer is said to have developed a relationship with Runesson, but grew increasingly uncomfortable with that relationship as Runesson allegedly started requesting escalating sexual favors.
