ARC Raiders Addresses Recent Nerf Backlash, Confirms IL Toro Adjustments in the Works

This month’s update for ARC Raiders included a new Map Condition, two new enemy types, bug fixes, and improvements to gameplay quality. Importantly, the update also adjusted the balance of the game, specifically weakening the Kettle, Stitcher, and Venator enemies. However, players were surprised to learn that crafting certain items like the Wolfpack and Deadline now requires additional materials – the Wolfpack needs a Rocketeer Driver, and the Deadline needs a Comet Igniter, which drops from the new enemy types. These changes upset many ARC Raiders players, and the developer, Embark Studios, has since released a statement addressing the concerns.
