Stay next to your PRO until you reach the extraction together. If you or your PRO die on the way, your PRO hands the items over again at no extra cost — right away in your next raid if they have them ready, or as soon as they have gathered them again, and they will tell you in the order chat when. Your order is delivered once your PRO has brought you to the extraction and you have extracted. We are not responsible for items lost to game glitches, or if you leave your PRO to fight on your own

The price is the same everywhere. Self-Play works on PC, PlayStation and Xbox because ARC Raiders has crossplay. Piloted, where your PRO signs in and does it for you, is available on PC only — you pick it at checkout
