Arc Raiders sets release date for Fall 2025, just 37 days after Marathon

In a short time, Arc Raiders has gone from under the radar, to on my radar, to darn near the top of my most anticipated games of 2025. That's all thanks to its recent tech test, which was so dang fun that it made the (coincidentally timed) Marathon alpha look bad. We have two games fighting for the crown of freshest extraction shooter on the block, and now that Embark has announced Arc Raiders' release date during the Summer Game Fest showcase, the match-up is even more interesting.

Arc Raiders will release on October 30 on Steam...
