Embark finally pulls back the curtain on Arc Raiders' matchmaking systems

Embark clarified that Arc Raiders does not use fixed PvP or PvE lobbies, but a matchmaking system that responds to player behavior.

The studio said unpredictability is intentional, and most players cluster around a middle aggression range rather than extreme play styles.

Embark also said isolated incidents matter less than sustained conduct when forming matches.

A new tweak will stop defensive gunfire from being automatically counted as aggression, better separating self-defense from starting fights.
