Arc Raiders Cronus Zen Scripts — Anti-Recoil and Aim Assist 2026

Arc Raiders launched as a co-op extraction shooter with a PvE-first design, but its ranged weapon recoil and precision requirements reward Cronus Zen scripting in the same way any shooter does. The game uses real ballistics-inspired recoil — initial kick, vertical climb, and moderate lateral drift depending on the weapon class. Vertex Zens has initial Arc Raiders coverage with two scripts.

Arc Raiders weapon meta (launch)

Arc Raiders at launch features three main weapon categories that benefit from anti-recoil scripting:

• Assault Rifles — the core mid-range weapons. Vertical recoil dominant with a slight rightward drift on sustained fire. Anti-recoil scripts have the most impact here.
• SMGs — fast fire rate, manageable recoil. Aim assist extension helps more than anti-recoil at the close ranges where SMGs are used.
• Marksman Rifles — semi-auto, high precision. Rapid fire scripts have relevance here for the same reason as in CoD — increasing the effective follow-up shot speed.

VZ Arc Raiders scripts

Find both in the Arc Raiders library:

• Arc Raiders V1 — the initial general-purpose Arc Raiders script. Anti-recoil for the AR weapon class at launch. Actively updated as the developer patches weapon balance.
• Revenant Killswitch - Arc Raiders — a themed script with a broader toolkit including aim assist. Covers the early-access weapon roster.

Both scripts are free with a Vertex Zens account. As Arc Raiders adds new weapons and seasons, the library will expand. Premium tiers will add per-weapon profiles as the meta develops.

Is Cronus Zen worth it for Arc Raiders?

For PvE extraction play, Cronus Zen scripting provides a meaningful improvement in difficult encounter precision — tight shots on mechanical bosses and precision damage on weak points benefit from consistent recoil control. The game does not currently appear to have kernel-level anti-cheat, making it a lower-risk environment for script use. As competitive PvP modes are added, risk will need reassessment.
