Embark Sets Four-Month ‘Escalation’ Roadmap for Arc Raiders, Teases April Map and New Large Arc

Embark positions the schedule to steadily escalate difficulty based on early player feedback.

Overview

  • January’s Headwinds update introduces level 40+ matchmaking, a minor map condition, and a new player project.
  • February’s Shrouded Sky brings a new Arc threat, a larger map condition, a Raider Deck, a map update, and an Expedition window.
  • March’s Flashpoint adds another Arc threat and map condition, a player project, and an update to the resource-collecting Scrappy.
  • April’s Riven Tides delivers a brand-new map strongly hinted to be coastal, a new large Arc boss, another map condition, and an Expedition window.
  • Embark commits to monthly drops with ongoing quests, items, cosmetics, and quality-of-life tweaks, says more content will follow after April, and notes exact dates and some Expedition specifics are still to be detailed.
