Arc Raiders is the newest title from Embark Studios, and it's one that certainly has a lot of our attention, with similarities striking to other extraction shooters we all know.
With a successful Server Slam, many are interested in the game now, and we're going to run over what we know about the general setting of the game.
Here's what we know.
Arc Raiders: What Is The Setting? Explained
The society of Speranza is soon going to be taken over by players worldwide, as Arc Raiders has surprised many with its unique takes on an already defined genre.
Speranaza is the location where our player hub is, and if you've noticed that during the Server Slam, the world itself is very desolate and ravaged.
Here's a little snippet from the Arc Raiders Steam page, which calls out to some of the setting of the game:
In ARC Raiders, gameplay flows between the surface ruled by lethal machines, and the vibrant underground society of Speranza. Craft, repair, and upgrade your gear in the safety of your own workshop, before venturing topside to scavenge the remnants of a devastated but beautiful world. Play solo or in parties up to three, navigating the constant threat of ARC's machines and the unpredictable choices of fellow survivors. In the end, only you decide what kind of Raider you are - and how far you’ll go to prevail
EXPLORE AN IMMERSIVE WORLD
Explore four distinct maps at launch, with more to be revealed as the underground society evolves and expands its reach. Each destination carries the weight of a world twice-destroyed, and the scars of conflicts both old and new. Sift through the remnants for valuable loot, and piece together the past as it's slowly reclaimed by nature. Evolving map conditions ensure that no two runs are the same, with varying weather, enemies, and mechanics adding unpredictability and danger.
