So, you're wondering how much ARC Raiders costs? You've come to the right place. The short answer is that the base game will set you back $39.99.

When I first saw the price for ARC Raiders, I was a little surprised. I’m used to new games coming in at a higher price point, usually around $60 or $70. Seeing a brand-new title for $40 felt like a pretty good deal. I remember thinking to myself that for that price, it was definitely worth a shot, especially with how cool the trailers looked.

Of course, like many games these days, there's more than one version you can buy. If you want to splash out a bit more, you can grab the Deluxe Edition for $59.99. This version comes with some extra goodies, but if you're on the fence, you can always check out our article on what the ARC Raiders Deluxe Edition includes to see if it's worth it for you.

Is the Price Fair?

Now, the big question: is the price fair? In my opinion, yes. For a new game from a new studio, I think $40 is a great starting point. It's not so expensive that it feels like a huge risk, but it's also not a free-to-play game with a ton of hidden costs. I was chatting with a friend about this the other day, and he mentioned that he’d rather pay a bit more upfront for a complete experience than get a "free" game that's full of microtransactions. It’s a valid point, and it’s something to keep in mind when you're deciding whether or not to buy.

Here's a quick breakdown of the pricing:

• Standard Edition: $39.99
• Deluxe Edition: $59.99

It’s also worth noting that the game has "Raider Tokens" which are an in-game currency you can buy. These can be used to purchase cosmetic items to customize your character. While some people might not be a fan of this, it's a pretty common practice in online games and it's completely optional.
