Embark Sets Feb. 24 Launch for Arc Raiders’ ‘Shrouded Sky’ as Exploit Sanctions Begin

Embark has concluded its exploit investigation, issuing warnings, coin removals, or suspensions to repair the in‑game economy.

Overview

  • Embark confirmed on its official X account that Shrouded Sky will go live Tuesday, Feb. 24 as part of the studio’s monthly Escalation roadmap.
  • The update is slated to deliver a map update with a new condition, a new Arc threat, a new Raider Deck and player project, a second Expedition window, plus balance tweaks and bug fixes.
  • The studio told players there would be no major game update or store rotation this week, setting expectations ahead of next week’s release.
  • After hotfixing duplication and infinite‑ammo exploits, Embark finalized its review and detailed penalties from warnings and coin removal to suspensions for severe abuse.
  • Based on prior release patterns, outlets expect an early‑morning PT/CT rollout on Feb. 24, while some players criticize the scope for not including a wholly new map.
