Rumors are at least another beta will start today at some point....NOW, people are freaking out as the Epic store backend just updated....could we have a full release!?

Zero chance it drops today, imo. If it were F2P, I would say there was a good chance. But I don't know of any paid AAA gaas games stealth dropping

Most likely an open beta

There will be at least one shadowdrop this weekend for sure. Showcases love doing them. We just know what it will be yet.
 
Can't wait to play this. Just got a new gaming PC last week. I love Nightreign, but I've been missing a good FPS—and it's been ages since my PUBG days.

That game will get completely overshadowed by Switch 2's release and media coverage. Elder Scrolls shadow drop worked cause nothing was going on that week and its an established IP...

This is a unknown that cost money, during the release of a new platform.

APEX did it during a time with no other major releases like platforms, free to play and by one of the most respected MP teams in gaming.

I don't know if its a good idea that this game release now, not like this...

Not a zero chance at all, its 50/50, the game has more than enough hype and interest behind it already and if it did release it can only do well.

Nobody apart from shills give a shit about a last gen console releasing in 2025.

Not really, the people who play Switch 2 arent going to be playing Arc Raiders most likely, hardly any overlap in audience.

Anecdotally, I find adult Nintendo fans are different than your PC, PlayStation and Xbox fanbase. Everyone I know personally that had the Switch or plans on getting the 2 isn't a shill, they're just either fond of nostalgia and playing mario, zelda, etc. takes them back to simpler times, they want a console they can play more family oriented games with their kids or they're more the manchild type. Personally I got the first switch to play with my kids. It collects dust now since they both play PC, so we won't get the Switch 2, but there's definitely more purchasing the console as adults than simply shills.

Possibly an open beta.

Can't see them doing a full drop. That would leave money on the table imo.


September/October seems more likely nto me with GTA off the table and Marathon being nothing to worry about.

I think it will be soon after the open beta not that late. Maybe August. At least I hope. Battlefield is looking good and I think they should try to avoid releasing close to it.

After playing the Beta, I thought the game was OK. Kind of boring.

I liked it but I need to play with my friends or it's not worth it on my own.

Selfishly I hope there isn't an open beta this weekend unless it runs a full week or so as I am flaying out in the morning to hang with some friends for this weekend as has been my E3 tradition for some years now

I'm not really interested now until full release either way unless progress would carry over.

Don't get me wrong id have the odd match but im already on board.

This game will be huge if they can deliver even half of its potential. Would like to see a roadmap.
