Minority Mindset

Whenever a new multiplayer shooting game is released, people immediately wonder if it’s free to play. ARC Raiders isn’t – it costs $40, which surprised some players. While many popular shooting games are free, the game’s developer, Embark Studios, made this decision intentionally. They studied what other successful games have charged and believe players are looking for a complete, paid experience without the extra costs and limitations often found in free-to-play games. Embark is confident players will appreciate a premium game that doesn’t rely on in-app purchases.

Arc Raiders has recently faced issues with players cheating and exploiting the game. A particularly well-known problem was a glitch on the Stella Montis map, where players could escape the playable area and unfairly attack enemies from outside the normal boundaries.

Ever wish you could quickly get the main points from a long article, game guide, or something similar? That’s what AI summarizers do.

With the new Nintendo Switch 2 and Xbox on the horizon, I’ve been diving back into this game on a bunch of different platforms – the Switch 2, Xbox Series X, Steam Deck, ROG Ally (both Steam and Xbox versions), PS4 Pro, and PS5 (playing both the native PS5 version and checking how it runs on PS4). I wanted to see how it holds up on today’s hardware and figure out which version runs the best, so I can help you choose the perfect way to play!

That initial optimism didn’t really pan out, but there’s good news. Handheld gaming has changed a lot recently. It’s amazing that after just six years, I can now play Final Fantasy VII Remake on a much smaller tablet than the PS4 Pro I originally played it on. And the experience isn’t just similar – it looks almost identical, and even includes extra content! The Switch 2 version is the Intergrade edition, which features the Yuffie side story originally designed for the PS5. All the visual upgrades from the PS5 version – yes, even the famous door – are included in this special Switch 2 release.
