ARC Raiders Patch Drops, Changes 'Obnoxious' Feature

The latest ARC Raiders patch is available to download right now, and here’s everything it changes.

Five months after its release, ARC Raiders is still going strong with players continually eager to jump into its shenanigans, fighting giant machines and competing with other players across the world for precious loot.

It's a simple but winning formula of entering a large and dangerous map, having epic battles and looting to your heart's content, then trying to escape with all the goodies.

It's a big reason why players keep returning for more action.

What’s more, the indie devs at Embark Studio regularly update ARC Raiders with new events to keep players engaged, alongside patches to ensure that players are getting the best and smoothest experience possible.

ARC Raiders Patch 1.19.0 addresses the general stability issues, quality of life improvements and whatnot, but it also brings a brand new outfit and two new snazzy haircuts. Happy days!

In the blog post, Embark Studios has also addressed an issue that players have been experiencing with losing loadouts after a successful extraction. The issue is being investigated, and if need be, compensation for items will be provided. There was no timeline for when that compensation would arrive.

One feature that fans are very happy that's changed is the Electromagnetic Storm lightning frequency. One user on Reddit said: "I'm glad the Electromagnetic Storm lightning frequency has been changed as it was ridiculously frequent to the point of being obnoxious. I pointed this out before and some liked the frequency!"

I have to say, I think the frequency was fine, but I won't cry over the change!
