ARC Raiders video game
ARC Raiders is a multiplayer PvPvE extraction shooter developed by Embark Studios and published by Nexon, released on October 30th of 2025.
The game takes place in the year 2180, decades after hostile machines known as “ARC” suddenly descended from space and began attacking humanity. Players assume the role of a Raider, one of the few brave citizens of Toledo—a subterranean city to venture topside and scavenge in order to survive and supply resources for the city. Along the way, they will encounter ARC machines and other Raiders alike.
Arc Raiders uses ITC Avant Garde Gothic Bold for its logo, with slightly tighter spacing and the second R nearly cut in half to make way for the color stripes. An unabashed sign that this game embraces retro-futurism like its life depended on it. In-game, Barlow Light, Regular and Bold is heavily used for body text. Urbanist and Prompt share the role as a heading typeface, although Urbanist is used more regularly. JetBrains Mono is used as extra decorative flavor and can be seen mainly in the HUD.
Dark version of the ARC Raiders logo, which can be further distilled to just the lines themselves. The green, yellow and red lines represent the player’s three skill trees. The blue line represents ARC, which is where its name comes from; the literal arc in its radar signature.
