The Beretta ARX160, known in-game as the ARX-160 or simply the ARX is an assault rifle utilizing 7.62mm ammunition. It was added to the game in the v0.10.0 "Back with a Bang" update on September 14th, 2023.

Background

The ARX160 was developed for the Italian Armed Forces in 2008. It is available in both 7.62x39mm and 5.56x45mm NATO and is a fully modular assault rifle. The ARX160 is used by a variety of police and special military forces around the world.

Strategies

Using

  • The ARX-160 is one of the best automatic weapons in mid-to-short range, with the high rate of fire and decent damage giving it a high DPS.
    • Be careful against opponents with longer-range weapons, because the ARX-160 is inaccurate at long range.
  • The ARX-160 is a direct upgrade to the the AUG, and has more DPS than the AK-47.

Countering

  • The ARX-160's high spread makes it have a low effective range. Therefore, a more accurate assault rifle, DMR, or sniper can be used against an opponent with an ARX-160.
  • If you are caught up close against someone using the ARX-160, try using a SMG like the Micro Uzi or a shotgun.
  • Hide behind indestructible obstacles such as Containers and Oil Tanks.
  • LMGs are also effective against the ARX-160, especially at longer ranges.

Obtaining

The ARX-160 is relatively common in higher-tier crates such as the A.E.G.I.S. crate. It can also be found uncommonly as world loot.

Trivia

  • In real life, the ARX160 can be converted to 7.62x39mm using a conversion kit
