After teasing the community with news of its December Update, Embark has finally revealed all the details for the upcoming Winter Event in ARC Raiders, adding in a unique map condition, another community event, as well as opportunities for free rewards. Since ARC Raiders launched on October 30, the game has managed to hold on to its player base thanks in large part to consistent updates on top of an already solid gameplay foundation.
While rocketing out to impressive sales and player numbers at launch, Embark Studios has continued to capture fans through major updates, the first adding a new community event that eventually led to the Stella Montis map. That level of success and player engagement is ultimately what helped ARC Raiders capture Best Multiplayer at The Game Awards 2025, and it doesn't appear that Embark has any plans to slow down. Coming off the big win, the studio has now revealed all the details for its big December Winter Event update.
Tired of grinding for rare items or looking for the fastest way to progress in ARC Raiders, some players turn to eBay to buy blueprints.
Starting on December 16, the winter season will start rolling into ARC...
