Yes, ARC Raiders supports crossplay across PC, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5. All the available platforms can play together. However, there is no console-only crossplay option - turning crossplay off restricts you to your specific platform only. The game also supports cross-progression.
ARC Raiders is available on the following platforms:
Yes, you can play ARC Raiders cross-platform. The game supports crossplay between PC, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, allowing players to team up regardless of their platform.
No, ARC Raiders does not offer a console-only crossplay option. When crossplay is enabled, all platforms (PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC) are in the same matchmaking pool. If you disable crossplay, you'll only match with players on your specific platform (PS5 with PS5, Xbox with Xbox). You cannot enable crossplay between just PlayStation and Xbox while excluding PC players.
Yes, you can disable crossplay by going to Settings â†' Gameplay â†' Cross-play and toggling it off. However, disabling crossplay severely limits your matchmaking pool to only players on your specific platform who have also disabled crossplay, resulting in extremely long queue times and potentially unplayable matchmaking. Embark Studios recommends keeping crossplay enabled for the best experience.
ARC Raiders puts all players in the same unified matchmaking pool regardless of platform. While PC players may have advantages with mouse and keyboard precision and higher frame rates, the game's focus on PvPvE (both fighting AI enemies and extraction) rather than pure PvP helps balance this. Embark Studios has stated they will actively monitor fair play and cheating concerns. The extraction shooter genre's emphasis on strategy and survival over pure gunfights also reduces the impact of input method differences.
Players on PC, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5 can all play together.
ARC Raiders supports cross-progression, meaning your account progress, unlocks, and purchases carry over between platforms.
ARC Raiders supports crossplay in all PvPvE game modes. The game allows solo play or teams of up to 3 players in extraction missions where you scavenge resources while fighting AI enemies (the ARC machines) and potentially encountering other player squads. Voice chat works across all platforms through the in-game system. To add friends cross-platform, click the social icon (two people) in the bottom right of the menu and add them using their Embark ID.
