Arc Raiders players can enhance their experience with the new Night Mode, now available in the game's audio settings. Night Mode compresses the dynamic range to balance sound levels, ensuring critical audio cues aren't missed.
Audio Features and Impact
Night Mode modifies sound dynamics: loud sounds like gunshots become quieter, while soft sounds, including footsteps, are amplified. This shift helps players detect opponents more effectively, potentially reducing ambushes.
While Night Mode is beneficial for identifying player movements, it may alter distance and positioning cues. This could affect immersion by boosting ambient noises, such as rustling leaves. Players with sensitive hearing or playing for long sessions might find it advantageous to prevent audio spikes.
Player Considerations
- Night Mode available in Arc Raiders audio settings (as of 2025-11-21).
- Enhances soft sounds, making footsteps louder for better detection.
- Reduces loudness of gunshots, explosions to avoid audio spikes.
- Might affect distance cues and boost ambient sounds.
- Players should experiment to optimize gameplay experience.
Arc Raiders has introduced this setting to improve gameplay by enhancing key audio provides. Balancing immersive experience and sound awareness could offer a tactical advantage in-game.
