About
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

This game is made for emotionless players who bring purple gun into PvE lobbies and shoot their fun away
I raided your wife's arc last night
This would be a great game to play with friends, except it is almost impossible to complete some quests without being PvP killed. After 6 runs with a friend trying to complete the same mission, and getting killed by players 5 of them, Ive decided this isnt the game for me. I have avoided killing other players because there is supposed to be a match making system to put PvE players together, and PvP players together. If you are looking for a PvP game with some PvE elements, this may be your jam. If you want to play PvE with your friends, and random other people, this is NOT the game for you.
This games concept is fun, the ability to talk to other players and actually communicate with them is amazing. meeting other players is fun and the shooting feels good. however the game itself lacks progression, it gets repetitive and frustrating as if you try something new and die thats hours of progress down the drain. like you just endlessly do quests you dont care about for loot that doesnt mean that much and run into players who might kill you or just say hi, its not bad, its boring.
**Not Recommended** I loaded up *ARC Raiders* expecting an extraction shooter. What I got was a PvE wildlife documentary where everyone politely takes turns shooting robots and acts like PvP is a federal crime. Every time I found another player, they either sprinted into the nearest bush or teamed up with the AI to make sure nobody had too much fun. The game has all the ingredients for an extraction shooter, then somehow forgot to add the extraction shooter. If your dream game is spending 45 minutes vacuuming up scrap metal just to lose it to a toaster with a machine gun, congratulations—you've found your forever home. I'll check back if the game ever decides that player-versus-player combat should involve... players.
This game was fun when the people were still a good part of it. nowadays it is now entirely about how well you can entertain yourself. There's limited customizability apart from color choices and not being able to mismatch outfit pieces, the things you'll spend weeks working towards can't be previewed and can only be seen through jpegs/pictures, and the people that are left still playing aren't as friendly anymore. If you expect to have a mix of experiences between PvPvE you're in for a disappointment. The only people left are those without mics, and rats. The few still trying to do big events or PvE challenges together tend to be the only people that are still filled with variety, but they also nowadays tend to just keep to themselves. As fun as it was, the lack of content and rewards for investing a ton of time or money just isn't worth it. I suggest playing other games.
The game is unplayable at this point, every game that you get in ends with you getting killed by : A.Cheaters : people that literally shoots through solid walls, teleports in front of you, loot you and disappear . and no, you dont get back your loot most of the times B.Duppers or rtards that buy from them C. Rats (the most common): even in the most PVE room you will find at least 10 of this vermins, if not entire teams focused just on killing you without loot,they just want you to have a bad time. If its too late for me to get a refund, it is not too late for you to not buy it.
its a good fun game that where youcan make knew friends or just have fun
