"Your items were lost due to unfair play, but we managed to get them back for you!"
"We're committed to building an environment where gameplay is about skill, teamwork, and fun, not unfair advantages."
"fighting cheaters will unfortunately always be an uphill and reactionary battle, unless the game goes full invasive mode and acts like a computer virus having more access than it should and we all know no one wants that."
Embark Studios restores lost player gear in Arc Raiders when in-game deaths are determined to result from cheating. The game detects how a player died and triggers refunds for items lost to unfair play, presenting a prompt confirming returned gear. Preventing cheaters remains difficult, especially on PC where strong anti-cheat systems require deep system access that players resist. Reports indicate cheating is not widespread in Arc Raiders so far and many players have not encountered cheaters during play. The developer emphasizes creating gameplay focused on skill, teamwork, and fun rather than unfair advantages.
