‘Arc Raiders’ January Update: All The New Content In Today’s ‘Headwinds’ Patch
The Headwinds update adds a high-risk Solo vs Squads mode for players level 40+, with extra XP rewards and new map features like Bird City nests in Arc Raiders.
- On Jan. 27, Embark Studios launches the Headwinds update for Arc Raiders, introducing Solo vs Squads mode for Raiders level 40 and up to face multiple three-player squads for extra XP.
- Earlier this month, Embark Studios released a content roadmap detailing updates through April; the Headwinds update follows the recent Cold Snap event and a short dead-zone between content drops.
- Among the additions are the Trophy Display Project for showing kills like The Queen and The Matriarch to earn `valuable rewards` and the Bird City map condition placing nests full of loot on Buried City rooftops.
- On social media, Arc Raiders players express mixed excitement and bewilderment, with some saying extra XP is a weak incentive for max-level Raiders and the mode seems catered to streamers.
- All told, the Headwinds update is minor compared with Cold Snap but should tide players until the February "Shrouded Sky" update, while a Monday patch set a weekly map condition schedule that may evolve.
