ARC Raiders Patch Triggers Steam Review Fallout

ARC Raiders’ Riven Tides update has sparked a patchy reception, with Steam reviews swinging negative after the patch. On April 29 the tally showed 364 negative versus 221 positive reviews, and the trend has continued, with today’s numbers around 285 negative to 154 positive. The update did little to boost player counts and drew criticism for PvP incentives and weapon durability changes, though the game still holds about 85% positive on Steam due to its strong launch. Insider Gaming notes the patch didn’t move the needle and invites players to discuss on Discord.
