How to Claim Twitch Drops for ARC Raiders
You need to connect your Embark ID with Twitch and watch streams for the specified time.
- Head over to the following link and sign in using your platform’s account (Steam/PSN, etc).
- Next, open the Connected Platforms tab on the Embark website and click on the LINK button next to Twitch.
- Once you’ve linked the Embark ID Twitch, head over to any ARC Raiders stream with drops enabled and watch the Stream (or put it on in the background) for the specified time. 120 minutes in this case, which isn’t much.
- You can keep track of the drop progress in your Twitch inventory.
- Once you have watched the specified time, you’ll see the “Claim Now” button on the same page, located over the items.


- After that, log in to ARC Raiders again, and you’ll see the items in your inventory.
- You won’t have to wait for these to show up; it’s usually instant, though you might have to log in again if you’re already in an active session.
Overall, the items are fun little additions that add a bit of extra flair to your Raider, and the requirements to claim them aren’t that tedious either.
