Cold Snap Update: Snowfall Hits Arc Raiders
16 Dec
Summary
- New 'Snowfall' weather condition blankets game maps in winter.
- Players face frostbite and changing strategies in snowy environments.
- Update includes Flickering Flames event and new quests.
The highly anticipated Cold Snap update for Arc Raiders is set to launch, introducing a significant winter overhaul to the game's environment. This final update of the year centers around the new 'Snowfall' weather condition, which will visually transform numerous regions, coating them in a blanket of snow. Players can expect familiar battlegrounds such as Dam Battlegrounds and Buried City to be dramatically altered by this wintry change.
Beyond the striking visual transformation, the Snowfall condition brings new gameplay challenges, including the threat of frostbite for those who linger too long in the cold. This necessitates a shift in player tactics to survive the extreme weather. In exchange for these new hazards, the snowy maps are expected to yield higher rarity loot, providing an incentive for players to brave the elements and complete their Expeditions.
Accompanying the Snowfall map condition are several other additions, including the Flickering Flames event, a series of new quests, and a Raider Deck. This comprehensive update, arriving on December 16th, aims to provide substantial new content and gameplay experiences for the Arc Raiders community as the year draws to a close.
