In return, you get a few semi-permanent boosts, such as extra stash space and perk points, plus unique cosmetics to show off…
Patrick Söderlund is the founder and CEO of Embark Studios, the maker of Arc Raiders. And Arc Raiders, you may have heard, is something of a hit—well, no, it’s a huge hit, one of the biggest releases of 2025 and enough to give Bungie some serious flop sweat about Marathon. It did so well, in…
