PC enthusiasts have discovered an unconventional advantage for gathering intel on upcoming content. It appears that swamp-based skirmishes are on the horizon.
Insider Gaming has highlighted a method to peer into the future of Arc Raiders. By manipulating the system date on the PC version of the game, players can bypass current restrictions to preview scheduled events.
According to these findings, the next few weeks will introduce specific challenges centered around a new weather system featuring snowfall and freezing temperatures:
- Locate frozen raider supply caches
- Pelt Rocketeer machines with snowballs
- Strike Bastion units using snowballs
The winter-themed “Cold Snap” period is expected to wrap up on January 13, after which the Bunker is slated to become accessible to players.
Furthermore, a new environmental condition labeled “Toxic Swamp” is set to emerge on January 19. While the exact mechanics remain a mystery, the existing wetlands on the Dam map serve as a prime candidate for hosting this upcoming special event.
