Embark Studios shared a snapshot of ARC Raiders stats for the first year. They share what people have been up to for the last 365 days in ARC Raiders. Players have been doing a lot of raiding with the stats showing about 6 billion raids being done over the last year. That's about 16 million raids a day, which really points to a pretty dedicated community that keeps going back to the PvE experience.
Embark Studios shares first-year stats showing 6 billion raids and 180 billion minutes of gameplay
Over the year players have been doing a lot of killing of the ARC enemies. For the year players have destroyed a total of 14.8 billion ARC enemies. That means that players destroyed 2.9 million Matriarchs and almost 4 million Queens. So there's been a lot of combat going on.
In total over the course of the year players have been in raids for 180 billion minutes. That's about 342,000 years that players have spent in the game all together if they'd been doing nothing but that for the whole time. The stats really show the whole year since launch.
The stats don't really have any Player-vs-Player stats. There was a test for PvE mode in October which had 30 million raids with good feedback. Embark Studios is in the process of considering a full-time addition of that mode after that test.
Some of the same balance and stability topics were brought up in our last ARC Raiders update coverage. These stats show that there's still plenty of core loop activity going on in the game for the community. It's likely that the studio will be tackling balance with some updates in the future with these kinds of stats.

Six billion raids is a massive number. The core loop is clearly working for this community.
Will the new PvE mode be available on PC or is it console exclusive at launch
The article mentions Embark is considering a full time addition after the test. They usually support both platforms for this genre.
