About ARC Raiders
SCAVENGE, SURVIVE, THRIVE
In ARC Raiders, gameplay flows between the surface ruled by lethal machines, and the vibrant underground society of Speranza. Craft, repair, and upgrade your gear in the safety of your own workshop, before venturing topside to scavenge the remnants of a devastated but beautiful world. Play solo or in parties up to three, navigating the constant threat of ARC's machines and the unpredictable choices of fellow survivors. In the end, only you decide what kind of Raider you are - and how far you’ll go to prevail.EXPLORE AN IMMERSIVE WORLD
Explore four distinct maps at launch, with more to be revealed as the underground society evolves and expands its reach. Each destination carries the weight of a world twice-destroyed, and the scars of conflicts both old and new. Sift through the remnants for valuable loot, and piece together the past as it's slowly reclaimed by nature. Evolving map conditions ensure that no two runs are the same, with varying weather, enemies, and mechanics adding unpredictability and danger.STAKE YOUR CLAIM
In a society built on boldness and bravado, it is up to you to stake your claim as a Raider. The loot you scavenge can be sold for coin or crafted into all-new gear, allowing you take on increasingly lethal dangers head-on. Through both victories and hardships, you'll gain valuable experience; unlocking varied skills that enable all-new ways of play. In addition, you'll complete quests for Traders with differing motives and agendas; uncovering both the friction and comradery of a community under constant threat of collapse.BEWARE THE MACHINES
Lethal machines known as ARC rule the surface, ranging from unrelenting drone swarms to mechanical giants that obliterate everything in their path. Their origins remain a mystery, but their ever-present danger is felt with every step you take. Each machine comes with distinct strengths and tactics, forcing you to pinpoint their weak spots and constantly think on your feet. And remember: the noise of battle carries. Other Raiders may be listening; eager to claim what you leave behind.FORGE YOUR OWN PATH
Raiders survive by kitbashing scavenged materials; using long-lost tech and looted ARC parts to craft weapons, gadgets, and gear. Upgrade your workshop stations and learn blueprints to craft even more advanced items, or improvise quick fixes in the field to get yourself out of a bind. As you make a name for yourself, you'll be able to measure your skill against other Raiders by taking on Trials; rising through the leaderboards to earn valuable rewards.QUESTS
In Speranza, everyone has an agenda, and the Traders are no different. They’ll send you topside on missions in exchange for rewards, slowly revealing more about who they are and what they want for Speranza’s future. Complete quests to earn gear, crafting materials, and XP to level up your Raider and unlock new skill points.SKILL TREE
The ARC Raiders skill tree branches into three paths: Survival, Mobility, and Conditioning. Spend your points to shape your playstyle. Loot faster and move quieter with Survival skills. Outmaneuver your opponents and threats with Mobility. And enhance your Strength and Stamina with Conditioning. Choose how you grow and what your Raider brings to the battle.BUILD YOUR ARSENAL
Whether you’re preparing to take down specific ARC enemies or fend off rival Raiders, there's a choice of weaponry for every fight. Cater to your style with a range of firearms including SMGs, rifles and shotguns, as well as more advanced options such as railguns and energy weapons. Grenades, traps, ziplines and deployables offer the tactical depth needed to outsmart your enemies, while augments allow you to tailor your loadout to your preferred playstyle; unlocking dedicated inventory slots and additional gameplay perks.DLC & expansions

I haven't played since the 2nd Expedition and returned in the last two weeks only to be consistently disappointed with the matchmaking AND community. I used to be in deep PvE lobbies prior to the change. Now I'm in mixed/Tarkov lobbies most the time. Whether I'm following Nero-era Christian pacifism or shooting back has changed nothing. I don't know how killing two freekits in retaliation changed my aggression to be akin to that of a KOS player. Coming back after a wipe also feels especially Herculean because the PvPers you'll run into likely haven't wiped since Day 1 (and fighting people who kill for the sake of sport isn't going to bode well for people trying to upgrade their workshops). This game was fun while it lasted. But the PvE audience seemingly shrinking and PvP audience becoming increasingly more antagonistic is definitely the final nail in the coffin for me.4 found this helpful
Don't waste your time, just stick to COD if you want PVP
This game was great when it dropped but then the devs just let the game flounder. Very little in the way of content and the momentum for the game basically completely died. cheaters everywhere and they're pretty blatant too. buy something else. plenty of other good games for this price
This game was fun and thrilling in the months of November 2025 to January 2026. After that it was just dull and stale. Like eating cold sliced daily till the flavor just disappeared. The lack of real content, game expansion, or gameplay really left and hell of a bad flavor in everyone mouth. I personally found no interest in resetting for the rewards were not worth it. There is no endgame. And this thing were Chinese version has more stuff is odd. This game could of went many ways and yet was let to die off fast.
first game i play i meet some people and we loot together. they teach me the Fundamentels and how to get good.at the end i shoot down a rat. very next game i see raider flares going up left and right and i get shot right away. 10/10 You shoot prey you become prey
loading times are crazy long 10 15 min wait each time
