ARC Raiders is making waves across PC and consoles since its arrival. Following a successful late 2025 launch, expect Embark Studios to release patches and big content updates regularly. Here we’ll collect every ARC Raiders update, patch notes and dates included.
Complete patch notes and changelogs will be listed on this page with their respective release dates as they arrive, and of course, expect full rundowns of every new piece of content coming to the extraction shooter as Embark Studios shapes its seemingly bright future and makes big plans after the positive critical and player reception.
ARC Raiders Latest Patch Notes - Store Update 1.30.0
The Arc Raiders 1.30.0 update was released on May 26, 2026, and it’s a small one that applies a new Store update. There are no traditional patch notes available, but here’s the official rundown:
We have a little store update today with two new colour variants for the Leviathan Set at the store now, Midnight and Crimson Frost. If you already own the Leviathan Set, they will be unlocked automatically. No need to restart the game!
After analyzing data and the early feedback since Ermal appeared in Speranza, we are adjusting the Expedition Vault pricing this week to encourage more trading. Tier one price will remain the same and all following levels will cost 200.000.
This week Ermal will have a new set of exciting offers starting today at (6am PDT, 1pm UTC, 3pm CEST).

We will continue monitoring data and feedback for next week!
We are also aware of crashes happening to players on Xbox, as well as FPS issues on PC since 1.29.0. We are actively investigating and working on solutions for these issues. We’ll keep you posted, thank you for your reports.
A note on live updates:
As we communicated in our blog about the changes to how we update ARC Raiders, live updates are going to work just a little differently from what you’re used to. We plan to deliver a live update every three weeks. These will vary in size and scope, but we will use each one as an opportunity to address your feedback. In between these live updates, we will still be updating and hotfixing when needed, with store and Trials rotations every week. We believe that this process will give us the time and focus we need to make changes that are important to the community.
