ARC Raiders Launch Maps Revealed
Embark Studio’s ARC Raiders is releasing in a few short weeks, and with the upcoming Server Slam Playtest starting this Friday, the studio has begun its big info drops so that you can be prepared to take on The Rust Belt.
To get things started, we have confirmation of all the launch maps for ARC Raiders, along with many new details on each one.
ARC Raiders Will Launch With 5 Maps, With One of Them Being Teased as Secret

As revealed by Embark Studios, here are all the maps that will be available for ARC Raiders upon release.
ARC Raiders Launch Maps
- Dam Battlegrounds – A map that offers forests, swamps, old research centers, and apartment buildings. It’s a good place to learn the ropes and many places to explore.
- Buried City – A pre-collapse city now covered in sand dunes. Here you will explore a Hospital, a Mall, Town Squares, Apartment buildings, and old architecture.
- The Spaceport – A derelict launch facility filled with old technology across different industrial locations.
- Blue Gate – A location higher up in the mountains featuring open areas, small towns, tunnels, and underground complexes, to name a few.
- Stella Montis – This is the one that is being teased as some sort of secret, as the only information we have on it is that no one knows what it is, or how to get there.
With the Rust Belt being a “constant place of change,” all of these maps will feature different weather, time of day, and even events called “special conditions,” such as Night Raids, where the time of day is Night, with the ARC threat being increased, but the rewards being higher. Other Special Conditions include hidden bunkers, Electromagnetic storms, and Harvest Season, which offers higher natural resources.
Beyond this, raiders will also have the home base, Speranza, as a location, though it’s mostly restricted to menus rather than an actual explorable hub.
That’s a pretty good amount of maps for an extraction shooter, especially when you consider the sheer size of these maps and how many secrets and points of interest they have. We’re sure players will find plenty to do, and they’ll have their chance to do so when the Server Slam playtest launches this Friday.
ARC Raiders officially launches on October 31, 2025, on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
