ARC Raiders was one of the biggest games of 2025, and its latest sales numbers confirm just how successful it has been. Developed by Embark Studios, the game launched on October 30, and in a short amount of time, it has already sold over 12 million copies.
The sales figures were shared by Rhys Elliott, an analyst at Alinea Analytics, on LinkedIn. According to him, ARC Raiders passed the 12 million copies sold mark over the weekend. Based on these numbers, the game has generated more than $350 million in revenue across all platforms.
Rhys also explained that daily copies sold began to stabilize by early December, which is normal for most big releases once the initial launch rush slows down. However, ARC Raiders received a strong boost thanks to a well-timed 20% discount across all platforms and the holiday season.
This combination had a major impact, as instead of continuing to slow down, ARC Raiders saw sales pick up again. In fact, January 4 became the game’s biggest day yet, with 3.2 million daily active users. And if you head over to Steam’s Most Played charts, you’ll find ARC Raiders in the third spot, just below Counter-Strike 2 and Dota 2.
In any case, ARC Raiders has proved to be a huge success for Embark Studios. In only three days after launch, it had sold over 1.5 million copies. And before it was even two weeks old, that number jumped to 4 million. The game also recently won the Most Innovative Gameplay award at the Steam Awards.
