The Cold Snap update is now live in ARC Raiders, and v1.7.0 includes plenty of major changes that you'll want to explore during the raids.

Much of the fresh content revolves around the Cold Snap event that will be running well into January. A permanent cold condition will be present across all maps, making it more challenging for you to survive the chill. However, Embark has also made some critical changes to how the gameplay worked in the previous versions of ARC Raiders.
