ARC Raiders gets another update with new fixes, new 'topside conditions' and QOL improvements

ARC Raiders continues to soar in popularity, and while the game launched in great shape, developer Embark have been hard at work. As announced today on their Discord server, a new patch is rolling out for the game that brings with it some fixes and a store rotation. Here’s ARC Raiders latest patch notes.

In case you missed our review, I thoroughly love ARC Raiders. As part of our coverage, I said “ARC Raiders walks a fine balance. It’s an extraction shooter seemingly purpose-built for the hardcore players, yet is surprisingly accessible, whether you’re playing with friends or going out there solo. It’s thematically dystopian, yet utterly beautiful to look at, full of bright splashes of colour and a cohesive overall design. It can be tense, thrilling, and downright terrifying, but it is also filled with surprisingly sweet and endearing moments with the sort of random, social interaction I’ve not enjoyed since the early days of Sea of Thieves. This is ARC Raiders, and it’s just the beginning. It’s one of the best multiplayer games of the year, standing toe to toe with the giants in the genre. I’ll see you topside.“

As we head into November, Embark have shared details on the latest patch notes, that bring with them a whole heap of improvements and interestingly, new map conditions for us to experience. Electromagnectic Storms anyone?
