‘Our ambition is to keep this game alive for the longest time’: Embark’s devs want to keep working on Arc Raiders ‘as long as players engage with it and have fun’

We had an inkling that Arc Raiders was going to be good when it released, following a massively successful beta, but I don’t think anyone could’ve predicted it’d achieve this kind of success. Following on from over 700,000 concurrents in just one weekend, a streamer civil war, and recently winning best multiplayer game at The…

MIT electronics researchers develop a new way to fabricate transistors on the backend of finished dies, to keep pushing the limit of chip densities ever higher

With smaller process nodes becoming increasingly more expensive to achieve, chip manufacturing engineers are turning to other ways to increase the number of transistors that can be packed into a single die. In some ways similar to traditional chip stacking, one research team has created a way to implement an extra layer of microscopic switches…
