“We’re excited to welcome Raiders to the Server Slam — this is where we’ll really put ARC Raiders through its paces ahead of full launch.
Our goal is simple: make sure that on October 30, when the servers go live, every player experiences the game exactly as we’ve intended
— polished, balanced, and ready for action. Thanks for joining us — let's prepare to go topside.”
