Nexon announced that Arc Raiders has sold over 12.4 million copies since its release in late October 2025. This strong performance was anticipated, as Alinea Analytics had previously predicted sales of around 12 million.
Nexon’s CEO, Junghun Lee, stated that current sales figures, combined with Arc Raiders attracting 960,000 players at its peak, suggest the game could become a major, long-term franchise for the company.
Nexon, the Korean publisher and owner of Arc Raiders, announced the game surpassed 12.4 million units sold by the end of December 2025. Sales have recently increased, likely due to a 20% discount, bringing the total past 10 million reported earlier. Arc Raiders continues to be popular, consistently ranking highly on Steam charts.
Log in to Arc Raiders before the end of January 13th, and you’ll receive the exclusive “Gilded Pickaxe Raider Tool” with today’s update.
This update includes several important changes, such as slowing down the firing speed of the Kettle weapon from 600 to 450. According to Embark, the previous fire rate was only achievable with the help of automation software, which gave players an unfair advantage. They believe this change promotes fair gameplay and discourages the use of third-party programs.
The Trigger ‘Nade has been made weaker. Embark explained that this change is to reduce its effectiveness when thrown in the air to quickly detonate, but it will still work well as a sticky bomb.
Just played the new Arc Raiders update, and they fixed this annoying bug where you could keep room keys even after you’d used them. It was a pretty big exploit, so I’m glad they patched it! Makes things way fairer now.
So, Arc Raiders has been blowing up, which is awesome! Because of that, apparently Hollywood’s been reaching out to the developers, Embark, with ideas for TV shows and movies based on the game. They haven’t actually signed any deals yet, but it’s cool to know people are interested in turning it into something bigger!
Arc Raiders has been popular, but some players have criticized its use of AI-generated voices. Patrick Söderlund, the leader of the game’s developer, Embark, recently explained that the studio is using AI to create games faster and more effectively. He also reassured people that using AI won’t result in job losses at Embark.
Our use of AI isn’t about cutting jobs or replacing voice actors,” said Söderlund. “It’s about helping developers and ultimately improving the experience for players. It’s a complex topic, and it’s important to understand how AI can be a valuable tool for everyone involved.
TopMob gave Arc Raiders a fantastic review, awarding it 9 out of 10. Reviewer Mark Delaney praised the game’s cooperative spirit, saying that the willingness of players to help each other – even in a game where they could easily fight – is a sign of hope and makes it one of the best multiplayer experiences he’s ever had.
