Raiders! On Wednesday, April 30th, we're kicking off the ARC Raiders Tech Test 2, where invited playtesters on Steam, Epic Games Store, and consoles will be able to experience the deadly exploits of the Rust Belt, for five full days. This will be our largest test of ARC Raiders to date, for the first time also including players on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and the Epic Games Store. The purpose of the test is to see how the game performs in a live environment across all launch platforms and gather key insights and feedback from players like you. This time around, you're free to share or stream gameplay capture and tell the world of your experience in ARC Raiders—in other words, the playtest is not confidential.
So, what can I expect?
For those who may need a refresher: ARC Raiders is a multiplayer extraction adventure, set in a lethal future earth, where little remains of the world we know today. On the surface, threats are everywhere: ARC machines loom high in the skies and lurk in the shadowy corners of abandoned spaceports and run-down warehouses. You'll encounter everything from roaming rollbots to multi-legged behemoths, and the choice will be yours—team up to defeat them, or risk combat with your fellow Raiders if you'd rather keep the spoils for yourself. While the line between friend and foe is razor thin on the surface, in Speranza, you'll find refuge. The Traders there are ready to supply you with quests and gear. You can also craft equipment in your Raider Den, such as advanced weapon mods or unique gadgets. With every level gained on the surface, you can invest your experience into a branching skill tree.
Every Raider has a story. Make yours count! Enlist now for Tech Test 2.
How do I get a chance to play?
To join the Tech Test 2, you must request access either on our sign up page on Embark ID (link) or on Steam. If you get access, you will be notified over e-mail. If you have previously played an ARC Raiders playtest on Steam, you will gain immediate access to this test too (but you won't be notified). You must be at least 16 years of age to participate in Tech Test 2. The full Tech Test Terms of Service are available here. Access is given randomly, and we will distribute invites gradually throughout the test—so if you don't get an invite on day one, you may get one later!
Can I stream or share gameplay online?
Yes you can! Unlike previous playtests, this test is not confidential, and we encourage you to share your experience, record it, share with friends, or post on your favorite forum or social media site. Keep in mind though, that ARC Raiders remains in development and will see many tweaks, changes, and additions before launch.
Anything else I should know?
Here's a link to a document we put together with some key details about ARC Raiders, the Tech Test 2, the experience of playing the game, an overview of some of the progression features, and more. You can also join our Discord to get more information.
See you in the Rust Belt, Raiders!
