    Arc Raiders' PvE test is live, and the author calls it a good reason to jump back in

    Arc Raiders' PvE test is now live, after Embark teased a temporary PvE toggle because a large part of its audience favoured a more passive approach. In the author's hands-on, Pendola Pass felt freer to explore and fight arcs without fearing other players, and nearby raiders helped when things went wrong. The author plans to play almost exclusively this mode while it lasts.
