Arc Raiders publisher Nexon has confirmed that the shooter phenomenon has sold upwards of 14 million copies across all platforms in the three months since its launch, and the company only expects that number to grow with future content updates.

Nexon announced those updated sales figures in its latest quarterly investor presentation, where it boasted heavily about the extraction shooter's performance. Arc Raiders supposedly had about 960,000 people playing at the very same time last month and has supported "approximately six million weekly active users" so far. Nexon says it's "showed exceptional retention."
