Major headache. Arka Sarkar
ARC Raiders players worldwide (myself included) have been getting the Logging failed due to service interruption error popping up randomly, and it’s causing many problems for those looking to visit Topside.
The latest problem seems to have been happening since Tuesday, Nov. 4. It also appears to be exclusively happening on PC. This guide will help you solve the problem to some extent so that you can continue your grind.
ARC Raiders ‘Login failed due to service interruption’ solution
A permanent solution has to appear from Embark. Nobody knows the exact cause of this error, and reinstalling or updating the files doesn’t appear to work. We will likely have to wait for the next patch for the problem to disappear.
Until then, here’s a method you can try out. I was getting the error quite frequently, but I have yet to have a recurrence after applying this solution.
- Close the game and Steam.
- Shut down your router.
- Wait a few moments.
- Restart the router and wait for the internet connection to be restored.
- Restart Steam, and launch the game.
- This should hopefully prevent the error from popping up, and you should be able to launch ARC Raiders without any issues.
That said, the error could return once again when you’re trying to launch the game. Repeat the steps mentioned in this guide. I am hopeful that Embark will release a patch soon to address the problems players are currently experiencing.
While ARC Raiders servers are operational at the time of writing, many players have also been reporting errors when trying to connect to a server. If you’re also getting ARX errors in matchmaking, you’re not alone. I am unsure when the current problems will subside, and the high player count could also be a contributing factor to the server issues.
