ARC Raiders Roadmap: Major Updates Planned Through End of 2025

With the global release of ARC Raiders completed, development shifts into high gear. Embark Studios has confirmed a detailed post-launch roadmap that brings new content and features throughout the remainder of 2025. 

Embark’s roadmap outlines:

• A November update delivering a brand-new map and hostile ARC machines.
• A December update featuring thematic map conditions (like “Snowfall”), a new expedition system, and a new Raider deck.

This strategy signals that while the game is live now, the action is only getting started.

Unlike many live-service shooters, ARC Raiders won’t rely on fixed seasons. Executive Producer Aleksander Grøndal explained that major updates will roll out when they’re ready – not on a rigid grid.

This flexibility allows Embark to prioritise meaningful content over cycling through predictable seasons.

• The existing map Stella Montis may receive fresh content before the holiday season.
• New ARC machines and enemy behaviours are scheduled for the November update.
• Regular weekly challenges and store resets will continue, building toward the larger updates.
• The game’s long-term roadmap hints at a decade-long lifecycle backed by significant updates.

The launch of ARC Raiders is just the beginning. With two major content drops scheduled for November and December, and a flexible update model in place, players who position themselves now will gain a meaningful edge. Keep your squad ready, stay alert for new ARCs and maps, and leverage CarryLord to ensure you’re both prepared and ahead.
