The Arc Raiders Server Slam is the final testing phase before the game's full launch, giving players a last chance to try it out. The server slam ended on Sunday, October 19th, at 8 a.m. PDT / 11 a.m. EDT / 4 p.m. BST.

I had a chance to play a few rounds with my friends over the weekend, and it was a blast. The cooperative gameplay is really solid, and there’s nothing quite like taking down a giant ARC with your squad. We did have a few moments where the graphics seemed a little less polished than in the earlier tests, but it didn't take away from the overall fun. It’s clear the developers are putting a lot of effort into making this a great experience.

What Happened During the Server Slam

The server slam was open to everyone on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. You didn't need to pre-register; just download the game and jump in. This was a great opportunity to get a feel for the game's mechanics, test out different playstyles, and see if it's something you'd want to pick up when it officially launched.

One thing to keep in mind is that progress from the server slam won't carry over to the full game. This is pretty standard for beta tests, as it ensures everyone starts on a level playing field at launch. So, I hope you didn't get too attached to your gear!
