*Arc Raiders* made a substantial impact following its 2025 launch, and the sci-fi shooter shows no signs of losing momentum as the new year begins. New data published by Alinea Analytics indicates that the title recently achieved significant new performance highs in both sales and player engagement.
The most notable metric centered on daily active users (DAU). According to the analytics group, Sunday, January 4, stood as the game’s most active day ever, drawing an impressive 3.2 million DAUs across all available platforms. This surge in engagement coincided with a massive sales achievement, as the report confirmed that *Arc Raiders* has now surpassed the major milestone of 12 million total copies sold over the recent weekend period.
This spike in performance comes after a period where daily unit sales had reportedly begun to “stabilize” throughout early December. However, a strategic combination of timing and pricing managed to reignite sales. A 20% promotional discount, which temporarily dropped the price to $32, perfectly aligned with the holiday season, capitalizing on the boost provided by players taking time off from work and school.
