ARC Raiders is almost upon us, bringing innovative new ways to experience the extraction shooter genre. But, two weeks ahead of release, the devs decided to host an open beta for anyone to hop in and give the game a try.
So, if you’re one of many eager players who wish to hop into this title as soon as possible, here’s how you can do so.
ARC Raiders Server Slam – How to access and download the playtest
To access the ARC Raiders server slam on Steam, simply navigate to the game’s Steam page and press “Request Access” on the playtest. Once you’ve done so, you’ll be automatically let in, allowing you to download the game from your Steam library just like any other title.
For Xbox Series S and X, and the PlayStation 5, accessing the beta is done by downloading the game from the relevant store, much like you would other games in your library. Then, just fire it up on any of these platforms between Oct. 17 and 19, and you’ll be able to play the game in full, as well as have the chance to give the devs your two cents on the game, the balance, and so on.
ARC Raiders has an official Discord server where you can communicate directly with the amazing team behind it, share your thoughts with them, or report any bugs and issues related to your playtest access.
If all goes smoothly, you’ll be having one of the best gaming weekends ever, guaranteed!
