ARC Raiders Is Quietly Becoming the Extraction Shooter for People Who Hate PvP

ARC Raiders has updated its hidden matchmaking rules so self-defense no longer counts as aggression.

That should help place calmer, exploration-focused players into more peaceful lobbies.

PvP-heavy players may be separated more clearly, reducing unwanted fights for looting-oriented raiders.

The change is part of broader content and system tuning during the game’s first year.
