Complete ARC Raiders v1.17.0 Shrouded Sky patch notes

Let's first begin by taking a look at the highlights of this major patch.

• New Hurricane map condition: The Hurricane map condition will have you brave against strong winds that will raise the debris and deal damage. Visibility will be low, and there will be high chances of getting ambushed by ARCs. However, you can also discover First Wave Raider Caches to loot valuable items.
• Weather Monitoring System: A new project is live, with five different stages to complete. Finish all the tasks to get valuable rewards for your efforts.
• New ARC threat: There are two new types of ARCs to take down. The Firefly is a new flying ARC that aims to burn you with flames. The Comet, similar to Pops, patrols the surface and explodes with seismic ***** when it's close to you.
• Surgeon Raider Deck: A new Deck is available for free for all. The deck is themed around Surgeon, and it's up to you if you want to be Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde.
• Facial Hair: Facial Hair will be available as an additional cosmetic, with a few options also available from the store.
• Dam Battlegrounds: The Dam Battlegrounds has a new high-value loot area in the form of the Controlled Access Zone.
• New Cosmetic Bundles: Two new cosmetic bundles, in the form of the Devotee and the Volare, are now available.
