ARC Raiders Merch Officially Revealed and Players All Want One Thing
For a game like ARC Raiders, releasing interesting merchandise that sells out in minutes should be easy. Its cassette-futuristic aesthetics, mixed with a wide array of items that each seem to have character and personality, give the publisher a long list of ideas. My wallet was ready for a retro-futuristic helmet, a 3D-printed raider figurine, a miniature box of Complex Gun Parts, anything. But then ARC Raiders revealed the first batch of official merch, and I was like, “Ah! Sure. That’s even better.”
Embark Studios’ Swedish modesty is the first thing you notice when you enter the ARC Raiders store. No flashy banners, no timers, no extravagant marketing: click here to see new arrivals or here for bestsellers. The merch itself is not over-the-top either: a bunch of T-shirts, sweatshirts, and hoodies, seven in total, with the recognizable four-colored ARC printed on them. Prices start at $31 USD and go up to $70. There is also a stylish, branded cap that’s supposed to hit shelves this January. But that’s not all. The shop has one non-apparel item, which I’m dying to add to my collection.

ARC Raiders Released the Perfect Merch, and I’m Already Scouting eBay
Among all the thematic ARC Raiders apparel that was released, one accessory stood out as a must for diehard raiders: an actual two-sided ARC Raiders soundtrack cassette, with the same aesthetic and color palette that make the game look gorgeous. Priced at $19, the cassette features all 24 original synth-heavy, vintage-textured tracks by award-winning composers Patrik Andren and Johan Soderqvist. Don’t get too excited, though. Given ARC Raiders‘ immense popularity, almost all the merch, including the sought-after cassette, sold out within hours. As such, my plan is to keep an eye on eBay listings so I can snag one, albeit at an inflated price.

You can listen to all these songs on the game’s official accounts on Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music, and most major music platforms.
The thought of playing the “Team up!” track on my older brother’s still-functioning Sony Walkman EX348 while preparing to take down ARC Raiders‘ giant ARC is beyond exciting. It would make the entire battle more immersive, as if I were in a montage of Disney’s 1979 The Black Hole, one of my favorite sci-fi movies of all time.
If you’re not like me and don’t want to resort to eBay, visit the official shop. You can opt in to the website’s newsletter to be notified when the cassettes are restocked. Also, check out the unofficial ARC Raiders merch—some of it is actually good; I saw a fan-made Leaper figurine that looked quite interesting. Keep an eye on Embark Studios’ future merch announcements, too. The studio has said this is just the beginning and that new items and designs will drop over the coming months.
My hope is that future drops include more cassette-futuristic accessories. A 3D Caravan figurine to honor ARC Raiders‘ first Expedition would be nice, too. But for now, we’ll have to wait to see what Embark Studios has in store, except for the ARC Raiders cap that we already know is coming this January.
