Arc Raiders vil alligevel ikke være free-to-play

Arc Raiders blev annonceret som, og har hele tiden været promoveret som, et free-to-play spil, men den model er Embark Studios, lidt usædvanligt, pludselig gået væk fra.

I en kort meddelelse står der:

You may recall that ARC Raiders was announced as a free-to-play game. Today we announced that ARC Raiders will be released as a $40 premium title.

There are many reasons for this change, and they all boil down to our belief that a premium business model is better suited to the kind of games we build. A premium model allows us to create a more focused, balanced and engaging action and survival experience.

Arc Raiders vil nu koste 40 dollars, svarende til lidt under 300 kr., når det lander til Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5 og PC i løbet af 2025.
