Yo, squad up or shut up – ARC Raiders is fragging the competition on Steam and Twitch like it's personal. Embark's co-op extraction shooter just smashed 66k concurrent players on Steam, locking itself in the top 20 while most launches fade faster than a noob in hot drop. We're talking 105k 24-hour peaks as recent as yesterday, with current counts hovering around 60k strong. This ain't no flash in the pan; six months post-launch and it's still outpacing half the live service slop out there.
Twitch is getting raided hard too, with the game pulling average 19k viewers over the last 30 days and peaks north of 96k. Sarahley, that German powerhouse, is leading the charge – dropping clips and streams that have her peaking 150+ viewers on ARC sessions, climbing TwitchMetrics' Deutsch top lists. Total hours watched? 14 million in the past month alone, year-to-date over 143 million. Streamers are eating it up, communities on X calling out 105k Steam peaks as proof it's thriving, not dying.
If your queue times are ass elsewhere, blame yourself – ARC Raiders is delivering the chaos players crave. No cope, just clips and kills. Embark, keep the updates coming or watch the raid turn on you.
