Nexon has announced that the final pre-launch test for its new PvPvE extraction adventure, “ARC Raiders,” titled “Server Slam,” will run from today (October 17, 2025) at 22:00 through October 19.
The event is available on PC (Steam / Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S platforms, with no application or invitation required—anyone can join.

During this test, players will take on the role of a Raider and enjoy survival gameplay set in the game’s first map, “Dam Battlefield,” where they must explore the surface to gather loot and escape. Throughout gameplay, players may encounter special situations such as “magnetic storms” or “night raids,” and could even face off against the powerful super-giant ARC known as “Queen.”
Additionally, at the underground base “Spelanza,” players can craft weapons, grenades, bandages, and other items in the workshop using collected resources, trade with Spelanza’s residents, complete quests, and enjoy a variety of other content.

As a special participation reward, all testers will receive a limited-time backpack called “Server Slammer”, usable after the official service launch.
