Overview
- Polygon describes Arc Raiders as a once‑in‑a‑generation multiplayer shooter and says it could do for extraction shooters what Fortnite did for battle royales.
- The review highlights slow leveling and notes that trader quests reward items and progression steps but grant no XP, delaying access to top‑tier skills.
- Solo raiders are not matched into raids with duos or squads, and proximity voice chat has fostered unusually friendly encounters even as PvP remains a valid approach.
- Guides now consolidate core systems for players, covering weapons, maps, skills, equipment, quests, redeem codes, and key locations.
- Arc Raiders is a PvPvE extraction shooter from Embark Studios available on PC (Steam and Epic), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S following its Oct. 30, 2025 release.
