ARC Raiders Friendly Fire Takes Down Queen in the Most Hilarious Way

If you’ve played ARC Raiders, you’ve heard about (or seen, or fought…) the Queen. She’s a terrifying enemy with a hulking construct, an immense attack set, and an enormous health pool. Before the Matriarch arrived, she was the game’s apex predator and an aspirational target for talented players worldwide.

In a recent clip uploaded to social media, the Queen was flipped on her head and taken down in the most hilarious, unscripted way by her own kin, a lone Probe looking to ascend to the stars.

Queen Faces Brilliant and Unscripted Takedown

In a clip uploaded to social media by cHipChrome and shared by numerous users, we see a Queen thrown high into the air, flipped onto her belly, and sent crashing back down to Earth because she happened to wander over a Probe that was taking off at that moment.

The Probe, which must have one hell of a jet engine, took the Queen on a partial ascension to the skies, lifting her and bringing her back down again in the most undignified way for an ARC of her stature.

The player who captured the clip could do nothing but stare in awe at the event, which is a perfect representation of how unscripted and unpredictable ARC Raiders really is.

ARC Raiders has been on the market for almost three weeks, and just yesterday, it managed to hit a new all-time high peak player count on Steam, securing another lofty height even amid the launches of Black Ops 7 and Escape from Tarkov.

It’s proving to be one of the most genre-disrupting games ever, shattering expectations and standing firm as one of 2025’s most impactful smash hits.
