Arc Raiders is experiencing prolonged login queues and matchmaking errors amid a player surge to 337,834 on Steam, later settling to 286,000.
System Strain and Delays
Players reported queue times ranging from 5 to 10 minutes with matchmaking disruptions. The surge of players joining from consoles and other platforms exacerbated server load. Some players managed to start matches but encountered setbacks, including being returned to the queue start.
Community Reaction
Amidst the outages, Arc Raiders’ official Discord implemented a 15-minute posting limit in its main chat. Users humorously dubbed the game a "queue simulator" due to delays. Developer Embark Studios has not yet addressed the ongoing issues publicly.
