"Will this blow up the server?": Arc Raiders players are so good at killing Arc that Embark is considering how to "escalate" PvE, dev teases a Shredder escape and "the giant walking ones in the background"

Arc Raiders best weapons .

Spend enough time in Arc Raiders maps like Blue Gate and you're sure to notice some abnormally large, amusingly Tick-like Arc roaming in the background. Where the Queen and Matriarch are imposing mobile fortresses, these background Arc are basically mountains with legs – impossibly gargantuan machines. I don't think an Anvil is gonna cut it. Developer Embark Studios doesn't seem ready to drop something of this size on us just yet, but it is cooking up some new Arc to make PvE feel dangerous as players master the current suite of robots.

Speaking with GamesRadar+, design lead Virgil Watkins examines the current endgame loop with Arc: kill Queens and Matriarchs to craft guns that excel at killing Queens and Matriarchs.
