Common problemARC Raiders
ARC Raiders matchmaking fails
Queue never finds a raid or errors out
The game can't put you into a raid, or the queue runs far too long. Embark points to a device clock that is out of sync, Crossplay being off, or the wrong server region.
How to fix it
Turn on automatic time on your PC or console, sync it, then restart and relaunch the game.
Turn Crossplay on so the game can search a bigger pool of players.
If you play in a party, ask everyone to turn Crossplay on, because the strictest setting in the group applies to all of you.
Open the gear icon, go to Gameplay and then Server, and set the region to Automatic.
