Despite saying that it wasn’t planning to have any more playtests for Arc Raiders, it looks like developer Embark Studios is ready to recruit people for one more weekend of action in its extraction shooter. The studio will host a Server Slam Open Test from October 17-19 on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, and it’s aiming to stress-test its servers before the game officially launches later this month.

This open weekend will allow players to explore the Dam Battlegrounds and experience “elements of progression and crafting” while completing a set of quests, Embark Studios said. One thing to note here is that progress will not carry over from the Slam Test, but participating players will unlock an exclusive backpack cosmetic for the full game.

This will be open to everyone aged 16 and older, so you won’t need a download key or an invite to get an early taste of Arc Raiders.
