Is Arc Raiders Single Player? – Solo & Multiplayer Explained

Can You Play Arc Raiders Single Player?

Sort of. Arc Raiders is a multiplayer game, but you CAN play solo effectively.

Solo Options

• PvE Mode: No other human players. Just you vs ARC enemies. The closest to single-player.
• Solo queue: Deploy alone into standard multiplayer raids.
• Solo matchmaking (Level 40+): Solo-only lobbies.

Is Solo Viable?

Absolutely. Many players exclusively play solo. See our solo build guide, solo vs squad comparison, and stealth build.

What You Miss Solo

• No revives if you go down
• Harder to fight bosses (Queen, Matriarch)
• Can’t split loot routes in a squad
