t was recently leaked that Epic Games was planning a host of new game modes for Fortnite, following a brutal round of layoffs that saw as many as 1,000 workers lose their jobs. However, if a recent Bloomberg report is anything to go by, one of the game modes mentioned in the Fortnite leak may be its own game entirely. The report cites conversations with four current and former Epic employees, who say that the game company will use its partnership with Disney to build a game featuring Disney characters in an Arc Raiders-like extraction shooter format.

I think ARC Raiders is peak.

People were already getting over extraction shooters, but AR sort of came out of no where just in time and pulled it off well.

I don't see that happening again with this genre. Even AR is in a slow and steady decline after the initial hype.
