China's version of ARC Raiders (弧光猎人) just opened signups for its first closed beta, the Arc Light Test (弧光测试), starting June 24. The Tencent-published build includes a brand new PvE-friendly event the global game doesn't have, one that changes a core extraction rule, and it confirms part of what leaked back in May. In this ARC Raiders update I break down the new beta, the new PvE event, what's officially confirmed vs still unverified, and how I actually applied to the China-only test from the US. Beta results drop June 22, full coverage coming either way.
