Embark Studios has announced the launch of duo queue in their upcoming game Arc Raiders. This feature allows players to team up in pairs, enhancing the multiplayer experience. The duo matchmaking prioritizes players in Solos and Squads separately, aiming to match Duos with other Duos and Trios with Trios when possible. Alongside this new option, the studio has lowered in-game cosmetic prices based on community feedback, and they will refund players who purchased items at the old prices. Importantly, the game will not adopt a pay-to-win model, as advanced gameplay items will only be available in free Raider Decks while the premium options focus on cosmetics and convenience.
