Arc Raiders Passes 17 Million Copies Sold, Nexon Says

Arc Raiders has sold more than 17 million copies, according to its publisher, Nexon. A publisher is the company that funds, markets and sells a game, and Nexon is the company behind this one.

The game was released at the end of October 2025. Nexon's latest earnings report, the company's quarterly financial results, shows that only 1 million of those copies sold in the third quarter, the three months from July to September 2026. Eurogamer reported the figures.

Looking ahead, Nexon expects Arc Raiders revenue in the fourth quarter, the three months to December 2026, to fall compared with the same period last year. That is when the game launched. The company also expects revenue to be broadly flat from the third quarter.

Nexon said Arc Raiders revenue was within its outlook. It credited the Frozen Trail update with bringing back players who had stopped playing and drawing in new ones. An update is a patch or content release that adds to a game after launch.

Across the nine months ended 30 September, Nexon's overall year-on-year revenue increase came mainly from Arc Raiders, the company said.

For players, the picture is one of a game that is still being played, with the company pointing to updates as a reason people are returning.
