ARC Raiders Nears Record Steam Concurrents as Battlefield 6 Player Counts Plunge

Steam data shows ARC Raiders retaining roughly 91% of its mid-November peak.

Overview

  • ARC Raiders hit a recent Steam peak of about 439,000 concurrent players with daily activity hovering near 387,668 in late December.
  • Battlefield 6’s Steam concurrents fell from a 747,440 launch peak to roughly 113,000 at its latest peak, an approximately 85% decline, with lows reported near 83,000.
  • ARC Raiders launched on October 30 with 264,673 concurrents and climbed to an all-time peak of 481,966 on November 16.
