In an ideal world, we will already have Toxic Swamp present in ARC Raiders as the latest map modifier.

However, that hasn't been the case, and it remains a mystery as to whether, and when, Embark will release the Toxic Swamp modifier at all. That said, the first roadmap for the new year has indicated that the map modifier could be released pretty soon.

Image via Embark Just like last week, Week 14 Trials is also supposed to include a task that requires us to tackle the map condition. The exact task is along the lines of keeping air purifiers active when Toxic Swamp is on. Whether the task remains the same or gets replaced remains to be seen. However, Jan. 26 appears as the likeliest date as of writing.

What to expect from Toxic Swamp in ARC Raiders

Almost nothing is known about Toxic Swamp as Embark has remained pretty tight-lipped. However, we can assume that there's something called Thermal Rocks to be found when the modifier is live. This is based on the previous information that we had about the Trials of Jan. 19.

The map modifier is also expected to affect volcanic terrain and geysers. I believe that there will be certain toxic areas on the map where breathing will be perilous. While I would certainly have felt better had it been a new map, Toxic Swamp could still force us to think strategically on our raids.

For now, the only option is to wait patiently and hope that January's upcoming map condition confirms our predictions.
