Just over a month since ARC Raiders launched on PC and console, some players are claiming that they have run out of things to do.

The extraction shooter took over Steam,

. "But after clearing everything that is currently available, I am stuck. There is no meaningful endgame loop, nothing to chase, no evolving difficulty, and no long term system that keeps you invested once you reach the mid to late game stretch. I want to keep going and I am absolutely the type of player who can grind a game for hundreds of hours, but right now I am running into a wall with nothing waiting on the other side."

The most dedicated players with hours played approaching triple digits are likely outliers in all of this.

ARC Raiders will continue to get new content for the foreseeable future, with the 2025 roadmap teasing new updates like more quests and a new Raider Deck in December, with a full calendar of potential just around the corner.
