Arc Raiders has arrived on Steam with a substantial launch-day surge. Live concurrent players are currently in the mid‑hundred‑thousands on PC, and the game set a new all‑time peak on October 30, 2025. The figures below reflect Steam only and don’t include consoles.

Arc Raiders player count on Steam (live and peak)

These are the headline numbers for the released PC version on Steam, alongside the recent playtest for context.

Version Current live players (approx.) All‑time peak Peak date
Arc Raiders (Steam) ~148,571 264,673 October 30, 2025
Arc Raiders Playtest (Steam) ~106 187,387–189,668 Mid‑October 2025

Live counts fluctuate minute to minute. Peaks typically form around launch windows and weekends as more players log on, and settle as concurrency patterns normalize.

What the playtest tells you

The playtest reached just under 190,000 concurrent players at its height on Steam. That early interest set a high watermark that the full launch has now surpassed, indicating strong day‑one demand translating into paid uptake.

Why player counts differ between trackers

You may see slightly different peak numbers for the playtest (a roughly 2,000‑player spread). That’s normal. Trackers use different sampling intervals and time zone cutoffs, so their snapshots won’t always align perfectly. Treat small deltas as methodological noise rather than a material difference in demand.

How to check Arc Raiders player count on Steam

  • Open Steam on desktop or the web and go to the Charts > Most Played section to view current concurrency and historical peaks.
  • Search for “Arc Raiders” to see the live player estimate and how it ranks among top Steam games.
Note: there isn’t a dedicated, official, real‑time player‑count site for Arc Raiders from the developer; Steam’s charts provide the most direct view of current PC concurrency.

The key takeaway: Arc Raiders is posting six‑figure live concurrency on Steam at launch and has already cleared a quarter‑million peak on PC. Expect numbers to ebb and flow as launch week continues and weekend play ramps up.
