Nexon (co-CEOs Daehyun Kang and Jungwook Kim) announced on the 11th that ARC Raiders, a new PvPvE extraction shooter developed by its subsidiary Embark Studios (CEO Patrick Söderlund), has surpassed 4 million units sold worldwide since launch.

Officially released on October 30 across major global platforms (Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S Store, and the PlayStation® Store), ARC Raiders sold 4 million copies to join the ranks of global million-sellers. Riding that momentum, the game hit a peak of 700,000 concurrent users across all platforms, setting a new first-week record for itself.

During the first two weeks after launch, ARC Raiders maintained the No. 1 spot on Steam’s global sales and popular games rankings and reached No. 3 among the most-played titles. It also topped sales charts in key Asian markets—including Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and Thailand—demonstrating a steep growth trajectory that spans both Western and Asian regions. On Steam, it continues to hold a “Very Positive” user rating, with about 79,000 reviews and 89% of them positive. Praise has centered on its striking visuals and immersion, sound design, and overall polish.

Junghun Lee, CEO of Nexon Co., Ltd. (Japan), said, “I extend my congratulations and gratitude to the Embark Studios team for delivering the most successful global game launch in Nexon’s history. The passion the worldwide player community is showing for ARC Raiders is tremendously encouraging, and we expect that excitement to spread even further with content updates rolling out from this month, including new maps, ARC machines, weapons, and quests.”

Set on a ruined future Earth—nicknamed the “Rust Belt”—ARC Raiders is a PvPvE-based extraction shooter in which survivors known as Raiders secure resources and fight to stay alive. Released on October 30 across all platforms, the game has players battle mechanical lifeforms called “ARC” on the surface while exploring, cooperating with, or competing against other players.
