ARC Raiders: already 200,000 simultaneous players... and connection issues

Eagerly awaited by fans of multiplayer extraction titles, ARC Raiders is finally available on PS5, Xbox Series, and PC. It's been a smash hit launch that's already breaking all records.

According to SteamDB, Embark Studios' title has already attracted more than 200,000 simultaneous players on Valve's platform in just a few hours. Of course, such high traffic has caused connection issues on the various platforms.

Embark Studios has not yet made a public statement on the matter. It is therefore difficult to know whether the phenomenon is widespread or not.
