Arena Breakout: Infinite early access, platforms & everything we know

Following the success of Gray Zone Warfare, Arena Breakout: Infinite is another new extraction shooter looking to steal Escape from Tarkov‘s crown in 2024. If you’re a fan of more tactical first-person shooters as opposed to the fast pace of Call of Duty, this could be the game for you.

So, here’s everything you need to know about Arena Breakout: Infinite, from the platforms it’s available on to whether or not it’s free to play.

Does Arena Breakout: Infinite have a release date?

Arena: Breakout Infinite went into early access on August 13, 2024, but there is no release date for the 1.0 update yet.

It’s important to note, though, that the early access for the game is not available on Steam yet. If you want to play right now, you need to get the game through the Level Infinite launcher which you can download from the official website.

Platforms

Arena Breakout: Infinite is only available through the Level Infinite launcher right now, but it will release in early access on Steam as well.

There is currently no word on whether or not a console version is in the works. Given that developers MoreFun Studio only released in early access on PC, it’s likely they are focusing on getting the shooter into a solid state on PC platforms but looking at PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.

Is Arena Breakout: Infinite free to play?

Yes, Arena Breakout: Infinite is free to play.

It’s unclear if this will change once the game leaves early access, but for now, you can download and play the game for free. It will also be free when it finally launches on Steam.

Gameplay

Inspired by Tarkov, Arena Breakout: Infinite is a tactical extraction shooter that sees players explore the Dark Zone, a large map full of both real players and AI enemies. The ultimate goal is to collect valuable resources and loot, before extracting and starting a new run.

This can be done by scouring the various locations around the map or completing missions. However, enemy squads will also be looking to take you out and steal your loot for themselves, bringing high stakes to each encounter.

Just like Gray Zone Warfare, Arena Breakout: Infinite focuses heavily on realism. This means that health is low compared to other shooters, your character can sustain injuries that need to be healed, and ammo needs to be conserved.

With all this in mind, spotting a team of real players can lead to intense standoffs, as both squads need to decide if they’ve got the resources, skill, and position to take them on, or risk losing what they’ve found so far.
