Arc Raiders, an extraction shooter game developed by Embark Studios, has sold 14 million copies in its first three months and has exceeded expectations with its first "significantly exceeding" sales. The game was initially unclear when it was early in development or several years into production. Different teams within the studio had different ideas about the game's evolution, with some arguing it was a battle royale, a hero looter shooter, a co-op Shadow of the Colossus game, or a session-based raid. The team spent three years in production and a significant shift in production, with each faction fighting for their vision of the game to take precedence. Despite this, the studio successfully convinced publisher Nexon to continue investing in the game.
