"ARC Raiders" is released with an ominous countdown, misleading and causing a storm of negative reviews!

　　At the recent Summer Game Festival, the development team Embark Studios announced the news that the multiplayer evacuation shooting game "ARC Raiders" will be officially released on October 30.

　　However, this release, which should have made players happy, unexpectedly triggered a public opinion storm - because the official had previously implanted a hidden countdown to June 6 in the test version, a large number of players mistakenly believed that the game would be released on the Summer Game Festival. When the expectations were disappointed, some disappointed players turned to the Steam store page of another Embark work, "The Finals", to express their dissatisfaction.

In the face of the controversy, Embark Studios quickly issued an apology statement, admitting that it was inappropriate to control the promotional rhythm of the release date: "We set a countdown to the Summer Game Festival before the official release of "ARC Raiders", which objectively caused players to have wrong expectations of the release time. We assume full responsibility for all the frustration caused by this 'countdown countdown'."

This multiplayer collaborative adventure game set in the future Earth will tell the story of human survival against the mysterious mechanical threat ARC. Its release window has been clearly locked on October 30.
