Embark Studios just announced its debut title at The Game Awards, a free-to-play, third-person shooter where you fight robotic enemies from another world.
Helmed by former EA executive Patrick Söderlund, the Stockholm-based developer is made up of industry veterans, including former Battlefield devs. You can see that DNA in Arc Raiders’ footage, which looks like it takes some inspiration from the old-school Battlefront games in terms of character movement abilities.
Check out the trailer:
Using rocket-powered jumps, missile barrages, and a range of other weaponry, you and your friends have to push back the alien threat descending from space in drop pods. It looks like you’ll be hiding from drone scouts and battling huge mechs, whose body parts you can tear from their chassis.
Arc Raiders is set to launch in 2022 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S consoles.
