ARC Raiders continues to surprise, unleashing a massive content patch barely a month after its release. The patch, dubbed as The North Line update, introduces a new Stella Mortis map, a new weapon, several traps, and many more.
Here are all the details you need to know for the North Line update patch coming to ARC Raiders on November 13.
The North Line Update Patch Notes – ARC Raiders
Here are all the major updates in the North Line update:
- New Stella Mortis map.
- A community event called Breaking New Ground to unlock the Stella Mortis map for everyone.
- Two new ARC enemies: Matriarch and Shredder.
- New Weapon – Energy Burst Battle Rifle.
- Three new traps – Impulse Mine, Timed Mine, and Gas Jump Mine.
- New Play Styles: Lone Wolf and Trailblazer.
- Stella Mortis questlines.
The new map features a new questline and an exclusive ARC enemy, the Shredder. Players will be able to experience Stella Mortis all at the same time, but there’s a community event where everyone must work together to unlock the map. There isn’t that much information out for the event, so we won’t know how long it’ll take to unlock the new map as a community.
There’s also a new ARC enemy, the Matriarch, which looks more dangerous than the Queen. There’s also a new Energy Burst Battle Rifle called the Aphelion Rifle, but it requires a blueprint and the Matriarch Reactor to craft.
Apart from these patch notes, Embark Studios also lowered their cosmetic prices, making the purely cosmetic microtransactions more affordable. For those who have bought from the store, they’ll be awarded the difference in Raider Tokens.
Embark Studios is also conducting some duo matchmaking experiments. To implement all these changes and additions in less than a month since release, they deserve all the praise for such a successful launch and follow-up.
