ARC Raiders Overview
ARC Raiders is a third-person action extraction shooter set in a futuristic world that’s been ravaged by mysterious mechs called ARCs. The world has become a desolate wasteland, and humanity was forced to flee underground to survive. Small communities have thrived under the surface, such as the neighborhood of Speranza. However, resources are scarce and there is always a need for the necessities—found above ground.
That’s where Raiders come in. Raiders are specialized mercenaries who dare to scavenge the environment outside the walls of the town, bringing back valuable resources and loot. Players not only need to watch out for the ARCs themselves, but also rival Raiders who may be looking for the same precious resources.
The game officially released on October 30, 2025. It was originally slated for a 2022 release, but was pushed back due to the need to refocus to improve their already booming PvP shooter title, The Finals. Since then, it has been in active development with a first playtest back in October 2024, then a second playtest phase that ran from April 30 to May 8, 2025.
