The upcoming Frozen Trail update for ARC Raiders is set to introduce a wave of new content this October. From a new frozen map to major endgame missions, here are the key additions players can expect.
Pendola Pass: A New Frozen Map
The new frozen map, Pendola Pass, takes Raiders beyond the Rust Belt into treacherous terrain. Explorers will discover an Italian village, an observatory, a supermarket, and a buried train depot as they navigate the dangerous environment.
The Frigate: A Major ARC Operation
Frozen Trail introduces The Frigate, a substantial ARC Operation that pits Raiders against a large airborne threat. This ambitious endgame challenge is designed to test even the most experienced squads.
New ARC Enemies
Three new enemy types join the roster: Bully, Skulker, and Hydra. Each brings unique combat behaviors, forcing Raiders to adapt to fresh threats during exploration and firefights.
New Gadgets and Weapons
The update adds the Tether Launcher, Yank Grenade, a camera, and an expanded arsenal of weapons, giving Raiders more tactical options in both combat and traversal.
Reward Pass and Customization
Raider Decks are being replaced by a new Reward Pass system with Free, Premium, and Legacy tracks. Players can earn outfits, cosmetics, Raider Tokens, and gameplay items. Outpost customization and Weapon Stencils also arrive for more personal expression.
Skill Tree Rework and New Quests
Frozen Trail also brings a Skill Tree rework, new questlines, and progression changes that provide long-time Raiders with fresh goals and deeper build options.
