How to Extract in ARC Raiders

By Daniel Hidalgo | 2025-11-02 21:45:31
Venturing Topside in ARC Raiders is only half the battle. The true test of any Raider is making it back to Speranza alive with your hard-earned loot. The world is swarming with deadly ARC machines and rival players, all waiting to claim your spoils. Understanding how to extract successfully is the difference between a triumphant return and a devastating loss. This guide breaks down every extraction method, from the standard chaotic lifts to the coveted silent escapes.

The Standard Extraction: A Race Against Time and Enemies

Every raid operates on a tight 30-minute clock. Your primary way out is through designated extraction points, marked on your map by a white symbol with a downward arrow and a countdown timer. These can be elevators, trains, or airshafts, depending on your location.Here’s the step-by-step process for a standard extraction:
  • Locate and Move: Check your map for an active extraction zone and head there before the timer expires. If you miss one, you'll need to rush to the next available location.
  • Initiate the Call: Once you arrive, interact with the console to call the transport. This is where the tension skyrockets—initiating the call triggers a loud, blaring alarm.
  • Survive the Onslaught: That alarm is a dinner bell for every enemy in the vicinity. ARC machines and other players will be drawn to the noise. Your best bet is to find a secure hiding spot nearby to avoid becoming a target.
  • Secure Your Exit: Once the transport doors open and the coast is (relatively) clear, dash inside and interact with the internal console. A five-second countdown will begin, culminating in a successful extraction back to the safety of Speranza.
  • Pro-Tip: There's a crucial lifeline here. Even if you are downed (DBNO), you can still be extracted as long as you are inside the transport when a teammate or a lucky circumstance initiates the final countdown.

    The Raider Hatch: Your Ticket to a Silent, Stealthy Exit

    For those who prefer stealth and certainty, the Raider Hatch is theultimate extraction tool. This method bypasses the chaos entirely,offering a quiet and controlled escape.

    The key, quite literally, is the Raider Hatch Key. This is one of the rarest items in the game, obtainable throughmeticulous exploration or by purchasing it from the trader, Shani, for a hefty sum of 9,000 coins.

    Using a Raider Hatch is beautifully straightforward:

  • Find the Hatch: Look for the unique extraction icon on your map that lacks a timer.
  • Unlock Your Escape: Approach the hatch and use your key on its terminal. Crucially, this action is completely silent—no alarms will sound.
  • Slip Away Unnoticed: The hatch will open, allowing you to simply slide down and extract instantly.
  • The greatest advantage of the Raider Hatch is its flexibility. With notimer, it can be your immediate exit strategy or a last-second savior.And just like standard extraction, it can save you even when you're in a downed state.

    Choose Your Exit Strategy Wisely

    Whether you brave the noisy, high-stakes standard extraction or invest in thequiet luxury of a Raider Hatch, planning your exit is as important asthe raid itself. Mastering both methods will make you an adaptable andformidable Raider, ensuring you and your precious cargo always make ithome.
