Embark Studios hit it right out of the park with the latest extraction shooter, Arc Raiders. Despite being a game in a niche genre, it has made a ton of noise in 2025 and continues to do so this year. That impact is evident in the number of players playing Arc Raiders on PC and consoles. On that note, here is the latest Arc Raiders player count across the platforms as of June 2026.
Editor’s Note: Last updated on June 5, 2026, to include the latest player count for PC and consoles.
Arc Raiders Player Count on All Platforms
Since Embark Studios released Arc Raiders on both PC and consoles, the overall player count has been increasing. Although we cannot determine the exact player count for each console, we have new reports from industry specialists Alinea Analytics. So, if you are wondering how many players are in ARC Raiders, keep reading.
Arc Raiders Player Count on PC (Steam and Epic Games)
According to SteamDB, the average Arc Raiders player stats on Steam charts are currently around 43,519, with the peak CCU regularly exceeding that figure. Here are the current stats for Arc Raiders players on Steam:
- Players right now: 27,120
- 24-hour peak: 59,919
- All-time peak: 481,966 (7 months ago)
The game has maintained its popularity on both PC and console platforms since its release, but the player count has begun to dwindle lately. The game gained momentum in the player count charts once again with the new Riven Tides update and the trader update. But with Embark Studio switching to a two-major update per year plan, we will have to wait until October 2026 to see whether Arc Raiders breaks its peak player count record.
There is no official Arc Raiders player count for Epic Games. However, the game is featured on the most-played games list on Epic Games Store, which is a massive achievement when you consider that Arc Raiders is not free-to-play.
Arc Raiders Player Count on Consoles (PS5 and Xbox)
The latest financial report of Nexon revealed that Arc Raiders hit a peak concurrent player count of 960,000, across all platforms, which is a new record for the game. Nexon also confirmed that nearly 6 million players hop into the game every week since the game’s launch in October 2025. With nearly 482k players coming from PC, there must have been nearly 478k console players when the game hit a new milestone, according to Nexon.
The latest PlayStation update included a new UI feature. PS5 console owners finally see the peak player count for the games they play on the homepage. In the United States alone, Arc Raiders had a peak of 972K players, and third-party platforms suggest that the game has around 104K players at the time of writing.
How Many Copies Has Arc Raiders Sold
According to a recent report by Alinea Analytics, the game has sold over 15 million units worldwide. As of now, this number is across PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. This has contributed to Embark Studios’ netting around $500 million in revenue from the game. With a great roadmap for Arc Raiders lined up, Embark expects even more sales down the line.
With the game breaking its own records frequently, it continues to prove that extraction shooters can still pack a punch in 2026. With the Riven Tides update bringing a new map and giant ARC enemy, Arc Raiders may reach a new peak again soon.
