Embark Studios reappeared at Summer Game Fest 2025 to announce an Arc Raiders release date of October 30, 2025, for PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S.
The release date was revealed alongside a new trailer today. The highly anticipated follow-up project to Embark’s The Finals will take a different route than fans of the developer may be used to. Instead of dropping players into a competitive, high-stakes FPS game show, Arc Raiders is a free-to-play, multiplayer extraction adventure game set in a sci-fi version of Earth that takes place far in the future.
More details about Arc Raider’s full launch will be revealed closer to its October release date. For more, be sure to read up on everything else shown during Summer Game Fest 2025. You can also click here to read our preview.
