The new extraction shooter has just landed on PS5 (alongside Xbox and PC), and players are struggling to squeeze into any matches.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s if they manage to get past the initial login phase, which is currently throwing out connection errors right, left, and centre.<\/p>\n<p>To be clear, it&#8217;s not like the servers are completely busted. Some people are getting in \u2014 it&#8217;s just whether they can actually stay there.<\/p>\n<p>We would assume that things will stabilise throughout the day, although additional hiccups seem somewhat likely over the weekend. One to keep an eye on.<\/p>\n<p>Generally speaking, Arc Raiders appears to have a lot of momentum behind it. Early feedback on the game has been really positive, and our extraction shooter specialist, video producer Aaron, has been bigging up the title for months.<\/p>\n<p>Embark&#8217;s latest outing is shaping up to be a hit, then. But do you think it&#8217;ll stick around? Are you playing Arc Raiders \u2014 or at least attempting to?
