ARC Raiders Player Suffers Hilarious One in a Million Lightning Strike Death

I’ve been totally hooked on ARC Raiders, and it’s easy to see why it’s been such a huge hit this year! I mean, the interactions with other players are always fun, and I’ve had some seriously hilarious moments while playing. When it first launched, over 481,000 people were playing on Steam at the same time – that’s incredible! Even now, almost two months later, it still pulls in around 300,000 players at peak times. So, I wasn’t surprised at all when it won Best Multiplayer Game at The Game Awards 2025 last week. The competition was tough, with games like Battlefield 6, Split Fiction, Peak, and even Elden Ring Nightreign all up for the award!

The Game Boy Advance (GBA), first launched in 2001, was Nintendo’s follow-up to the classic Game Boy and Game Boy Color.

Nintendo has added some popular GBA titles, like Mr. Driller 2 and Super Mario Advance, to its Nintendo Switch Online library for subscribers. In 2003, Nintendo released an updated version called the Game Boy Advance SP, which folded up for portability, had a lit screen, and used a rechargeable battery.

ARC Raiders’ Best Feature Is Its Biggest Gain and Also Its Biggest Loss

I’ve been following ARC Raiders and it’s interesting – some people really like it as it is, with both player-versus-environment and player-versus-player elements. But a lot of us are hoping for a mode where you can just focus on the environment and team up without worrying about other players. It’s been the most requested feature since the game came out, and honestly, I think it’s because the game world is so engaging! If ARC Raiders didn’t pull you in so much, I doubt we’d be asking for a purely cooperative experience as strongly – or even at all.
