Few games have had a better year than Arc Raiders. After months of anticipation from open betas, the shooter from Embark Studios arrived in October to widespread acclaim. As such, with the end of the year approaching, executive producer Aleksander Grondal has taken some time to address the rousing reception and announce a little gift to players.
"Internally, we were having a blast playing [Arc Raiders] before release, and your reaction to the tech test in April gave us an inkling of what was to come," he says. "What we didn't count on was the sheer scale of love and passion you guys were going to show this game."
