Arc Raiders Passes 17 Million Sales as It Turns One

Arc Raiders has sold more than 17 million copies, according to publisher Nexon, which marked the extraction shooter's first birthday with the milestone. The game from Embark Studios launched in late October 2025 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and the total shows it has found a large audience in its first year.

The sales figure comes with a less upbeat forecast. Nexon says revenue is set to decline, which suggests the early wave of purchases is slowing. The announcement did not include a detailed breakdown, so it is unclear from the statement how much of the expected drop reflects fewer new buyers and how much reflects other factors, such as spending inside the game.

Extraction shooters depend heavily on sustained player engagement rather than a single launch burst, so the copy count is only part of the picture. Whether the game can keep its players and stabilize its income will likely matter more for Nexon's results in the coming quarters than the milestone itself.
