If you had any concerns that developer Embark Studios would embrace the Call of Duty-like goofy costumes for its stylish extraction shooter Arc Raiders, you can rest assured. While you never say never, the team has made it clear that “novelty” skins are not coming to the game at this point.
Design director Virgil Watkins told PCGamesN on October 30 that the game’s visual identity is so strong that adding silly skins would tarnish that artistic vision.
“What I believe to be true is that we will maintain the current aesthetic that we have,” Watkins said. “It will fit within our sensibilities of how these things look and fit within the world and inside the fiction.”
