ARC Raiders has climbed to No. 1 on Steam’s global sales chart.

The new “multiplayer extraction adventure” shooter ARC Raiders, developed by Nexon subsidiary Embark Studios, has reached the top spot on Steam’s Global Top Sellers ahead of its official launch.

Set to go live at 6:30 p.m. on the 30th, ARC Raiders had already seized the No. 1 position on Steam’s Top Sellers during the pre-purchase phase amid strong worldwide interest. In particular, it ranked No. 1 in major Western markets including the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and France. In Asia, it entered the Top 10 with China at No. 8; Japan, No. 4; Hong Kong, No. 7; Taiwan, No. 4; and Korea, No. 4.

This momentum was foreshadowed during the recent test. The three-day “Server Slam” held from the 17th recorded a peak of roughly 190,000 concurrent players on Steam, while on Twitch it drew more than about 200,000 peak viewers—firmly showcasing the game’s status as a globally anticipated release.

ARC Raiders is a PvPvE (player-vs-player-vs-environment) extraction-adventure game set on a post-apocalyptic Earth ruled by a mechanized lifeform known as the ARC. Players become “Raiders,” securing resources and fighting to survive through a tense mix of cooperation and competition.

Nexon expects the global success of ARC Raiders to further cement its development prowess in the shooter genre and strengthen its foothold in international markets. The full service is slated to roll out starting this afternoon across multiple platforms, including PC (Steam and Epic), PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
