Embark Studios, the creators of the newly launched Extraction Shooter game, ARC Raiders, have taken a bold step to combat cheating in the game. The game has been receiving positive reviews, but it was also reported that some players had their hard-earned loot stolen by cheaters. However, Embark Studios has implemented a complex 'Abnormal Match Compensation' anti-cheat system that refunds the lost items to the victims' inventories, even if they haven't been reported by players. This system is designed to detect when a player is killed by a cheater who is using third-party tools such as aimbots or wall hacks during a match. The cheater will be punished with account penalties, including having their account banned, so they will be forced to repurchase the game and lose all their gear in the process. Players can make Embark Studios' job easier by directly reporting a cheater's profile ID or an in-game incident on the developer's official website or in game. This is a commendable effort by Embark Studios to protect its player base from cheating hackers who are too cowardly to play the game as intended at the expense of everybody else. ARC Raiders is a third-person extraction shooter set in a post-apocalyptic world where you are scavenging for supplies, gear and weapons to help you survive, fighting off looters and mysterious mechanical beings known as the ARC. It features a collection of diverse, richly detailed maps, dozens of hours' worth of content, and challenging gameplay. The game is available for purchase on Xbox Series X | S, PlayStation 5, and PC via Windows and Steam.
