Summary (AI)

Patch 1.13.0 for ARC Raiders introduces a new Solo vs Squads matchmaking option for solo Raiders level 40 and above, offering a 20% XP bonus. A long-term Display Case project has been added, rewarding players with blueprints, tokens, emotes, and coins for hunting ARC groups. The Buried City map now features a permanent bird flock mechanic with new environmental elements and increased rooftop combat. Several quality-of-life improvements include open party options, gamepad rebinding, mouse smoothing, and bug fixes related to achievements, ARC behavior, map collisions, and UI issues. Additional updates address player movement, voice chat, loot distribution, and aim assist consistency across framerates.

Tip: expand all for quick scanning.

The rewards for completing each step include blueprints as well as Raider Tokens, and full completion also brings additional rewards including a Howl emote, a guitar and 300,000 Coins. There is currently no fixed end date and it will not be impacted by Expedition resets.
