The Next Big Game Is Now Free for 3 Glorious Days - Go Download It Now

If you've been following Geek Universe for a while, you already know I won't shut up about Arc Raiders. Ever since that second open playtest, I've been waiting very impatiently to jump back into this beautifully chaotic extraction shooter.

Wait, wait - don't scroll away just because I said "extraction shooter." I know, I know. You hate them, I hate them too. I get it. But Arc Raiders is different. It's part sci-fi dream, part apocalypse survival, part "what if Destiny and The Division had a gorgeous Swedish baby raised by synthwave playlists?"

And now you don't have to take my word for it - because it's free to play all weekend long during the Arc Raiders Server Slam.

The Server Slam runs from October 17–19, across PC (Steam & Epic), PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. No codes, no sign-ups, just download and jump in. If you played the last playtest, it'll even show up as an update in your library.

This open beta includes new content - quests, a new Dam Battlegrounds map, and environmental chaos like electromagnetic storms and night raids. Oh, and apparently "a visit from the Queen." (I'm guessing not the polite tea-drinking kind.)

You'll even earn an exclusive "Server Slammer" backpack for participating - no grinding required. Progress won't carry over, but bragging rights definitely will.

If this is your first time hearing about Arc Raiders, go fix that. It's the most stylish, atmospheric sci-fi shooter I've played in years - and for three glorious days, it's free.
