The Story This Season
Riven Tides introduces a new coastal map, a massive new ARC enemy called the Turbine, and a fresh Raider Deck. The limited-time Last Resort event (April 28 – May 25, 2026) rewards players for completing extraction objectives under extreme pressure. Embark Studios has confirmed Arc Raiders is moving from a monthly cadence to two major updates per year — the next big drop, Frozen Trail, arrives in October 2026 and will be the largest update in the game's history. A new high-level trader and stash relief land in interim live updates before then.

What is the Arc Raiders Raider Deck?
+
The Raider Deck is Arc Raiders' free progression system, replacing a traditional paid Battle Pass. All cosmetic rewards are earned through gameplay with no purchase required.
What is the Arc Raiders extraction loop and how does it progress across seasons?
+
Arc Raiders is a third-person extraction shooter where squads of three drop into large maps, fight NPC ARCs (autonomous robotic constructs) and other players, loot gear, and extract before dying. Everything you extract carries over to your persistent stash and can be used in future raids — dying means losing whatever you brought in. Seasonal progression is tied to the Raider Deck (the free reward track), TEC faction reputation, and limited-time events like Last Resort. Major seasonal updates reset event progress but not your core extracted inventory or TEC standing.
