ARC Raiders Public Test Announced
Embark Studios has made an important announcement for its long-anticipated PvPvE survival and extraction shooter, ARC Raiders. With the game’s release just around the corner, a public test event called “Server Slam” will be available to all players from October 17–19. This test aims to both gauge the resilience of the servers and give players a chance to experience the game before launch.
ARC Raiders Pre-Launch Public Test and Pre-Order Details
According to Embark Studios, the Server Slam test will be available to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC players. During the test, players will be able to experience the game’s core mechanics and get a closer look at ARC Raiders’ chaotic PvPvE structure. This process will highlight the extraction-based gameplay and how players will interact with each other and environmental threats.
Alongside the public test announcement, digital pre-orders have also been launched. The Standard Edition, priced at $39.99, includes only the game itself, while the Deluxe Edition comes with a more extensive content package. The Deluxe Edition includes the “Wanderer Cosmetic Pack,” the “Valente” legendary outfit, the “Pathfinder” backpack, various cosmetic items, a legendary emote, and 2,400 Raider Tokens. Pre-ordering players will also receive the bonus “Astro Cosmetic Pack,” which includes the “G-sui” legendary outfit, the “Salvager” backpack, and color variations.
ARC Raiders is considered one of Embark Studios’ most ambitious projects to date. The game’s atmosphere is filled with details that deeply evoke its sci-fi theme. Combating massive machines, resource gathering, teamwork, and survival elements form the core of ARC Raiders. Thanks to its PvPvE structure, players will be forced to make strategic moves not only against environmental threats but also against other players.
Despite all its innovative nature, ARC Raiders’ release date isn’t far off. The game will officially launch on October 30, 2025, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam and Epic Games Store). The public testing process will be a critical test for both players and the development team in its final stages.
Embark Studios emphasizes that the feedback gained during this process is invaluable for the game’s balance and performance. Adjustments made after the Server Slam event will contribute to a smoother experience in the launch version of ARC Raiders. This pre-release testing session is considered the best opportunity for anyone curious about the game.
