While Embark boss Patrick Söderlund was coy about the details, he did admit that numerous companies had been in touch in hopes of making a movie or show about "this IP," adding that Arc Raiders "fits quite well" for a game-to-TV adaptation. "I can’t tell you how many companies have reached out to us wanting to make a TV series [and] movie out of this IP," Söderlund told [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vY3u7wOmm4w'][U]GamesBeat[/U][/URL].
