"Just a couple of hours ago, Arc Raiders servers went offline after a weekend of testing. The game hosted a three-day server slam event that included very limited content, and was mainly designed to push servers to their limits and test the game's infrastructure. At least in terms of raw player numbers, the event has been a success, attracting more players than the extraction shooter has ever seen with any of its previous tests."
"According to SteamDB, the server slam attracted 189,668 concurrent players at its peak on Friday. This is well beyond what the May tech test managed to attract, though with the obvious caveat that it was invite-only. All that interest also helped push Arc Raiders into Steam's global top sellers list, where the game currently occupies the number three spot, just behind Counter-Strike 2 and Battlefield 6."
Arc Raiders ran an open, three-day server slam designed to stress-test servers and infrastructure while offering very limited content. The event drew a peak of 189,668 concurrent players, surpassing previous, invite-only tests. High player interest pushed the game into Steam's global top sellers, reaching the number three position behind Counter-Strike 2 and Battlefield 6, driven notably by the standard $40 edition. Strong test performance and sales momentum suggest positive prospects for launch. Arc Raiders is scheduled to release on October 30 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
