ARC Raiders isn’t just hanging on, it’s quietly proving it has real staying power. New player data shows that the game has managed to retain 91% of its player base since launch, a number that stands out in a genre where most titles lose momentum fast.
On December 28, the game climbed to 439,000 concurrent players, bringing it surprisingly close to its all-time peak of 481,966 players recorded in November. Not many multiplayer releases can say they’re still sitting near their launch high months later, yet ARC Raiders is doing exactly that.
What makes this interesting is the story behind the numbers. ARC Raiders launched with skepticism around whether it could survive in today’s crowded live-service landscape. But steady updates, developer support, and a community that never really drifted away seem to have helped the game settle into a healthy rhythm.
It’s too early to call it a long-term success story, but right now ARC Raiders is defying expectations and holding onto a player base that many live-service games would envy. If the team can keep momentum going into next year, the game may be on track for an even stronger second phase.
ARC Raiders isn’t fading; if anything, it’s still climbing. What do you think keeps players coming back: The gameplay, updates, or something else entirely? Stay tuned to VGNW for more insights, and don’t forget to follow us on X for up-to-the-minute gaming news.
