Breaking Update: Here’s a clear explanation of the latest developments related to Breaking News:Headwinds: Ready to go against the odds?– What Just Happened and why it matters right now.
Hello Raiders,
The ice has melted. You have survived one of the most punishing winters in recorded Rust Belt history. Others weren’t so lucky.
Bodies that survived begin to thaw, revealing a hardened, resolute spirit. The Cold Snap either kills you, or it makes you stronger, and topside is experiencing more and more Raiders going against the odds for ever greater glory and rewards. On January 27th, our Headwinds update arrives.
Solo vs Squads: Matchmaking Option
For those that have passed level 40 and are up to the challenge, it is now possible to test yourself as a solo in a lobby of squads. Will you be a hunter, a silent assassin, or a hidden looter? With extra XP on offer for joining as a solo against squads, all options are on the table.
Trophy Display: Project
Some Raiders have taken to hunting ARC for sport. No longer is it just about defence; these mavericks take the fight to the machines and harvest them for prizes. Build out your trophy case, progress through the levels, and unlock valuable items in the process.
Bird City
Have you noticed more birds hanging around the Buried City? Now the ice has melted, these intrepid survivors are stocking up on supplies for their nests. You’ll find a lot of valuable loot in chimneys, but watch out for other Raiders… some will just be waiting for you to drop your guard.
Cosmetics
Headwinds also sees the introduction of two new cosmetic sets, suitable for going up against the odds. Will you don the Sandwalker Set to out maneuver your opponents with stealth and skill?
Now is the time to challenge yourself and truly test your mettle. This is just the beginning – we need to know if you’re ready for the impending escalation.
See you Topside,
The ARC Raiders Team
