Arc Raiders has been a smash hit for developer Embark and publisher Nexon, and now Embark’s top boss, Patrick Soderlund, has commented on the game’s success and revealed that the studio has multiple new games in the works.
Speaking to IGN, Soderlund said, “Well, you don’t have to be a math professor to realize that the game has done well for us and that we’re obviously incredibly happy with the performance from a financial perspective. So, of course, it’s been very profitable for us.”
Arc Raiders, which sells for $40, has sold more than 12 million copies, and this includes copies sold when the game was 20% off for the holidays. The game makes money beyond unit sales, as Embark also offers various microtransaction items for Arc Raiders. Embark was previously planning to launch Arc Raiders as a free game, but later pivoted to a $40 price.
