A gang war has erupted in Arc Raiders, and some of the biggest streamers around are involved in the battle. But what exactly is going on?
If you’ve been on social media in the last few days, you’ve probably seen a feud break out between HutchMF and The Burnt Peanut in Arc Raiders. The two are assembling teams of streamers, trash-talking, and fighting for control of Speranza.
So, here’s a breakdown of what’s going on, who’s involved, and how you can pick a side in the Battle of the Bunguraiders.
How did Arc Raiders Battle of the Bunguraiders begin?
It all began when HutchMF declared war on Burnt Peanut, after he was mercifully killed in Arc Raiders by a player, despite his pleas for mercy. Before he was executed, his attacker said, “For the Bungaltors,” in reference to Burnt Peanut’s nickname for himself: The Bungaltor.
Hutch shared the clip on X, announcing: “THIS MEANS WAR!!”
The next day, Burnt Peanut responded, posting: “If it’s war with the bungulators you want, then it’s war you’ll get.”
Now, both streamers are rallying their troops and looking for support from fellow creators and their communities.
