‘Marathon’ Just Dodged An ‘ARC Raiders’ Bullet For Launch

Embark Studios plans four major updates including a new map, new enemies, and level 40+ matchmaking to expand Arc Raiders content through April 2026.

  • This month Embark Studios revealed the Arc Raiders Road Map for January through April, dubbed Escalation, confirming four major updates with Headwinds launching this month.
  • After the Cold Snap update, Embark Studios said Escalation will introduce new weather and enemy threats across the Rustbelt while delivering steady monthly content to engage players.
  • Feature listings include map conditions, Arc threats, a Raider Deck, Expedition Windows, a level 40+ matchmaking option, and a Scrappy update next month.
  • Recent weeks of fixes aim to stabilize live service as Embark patches holes in Stella Montis and tackles cheaters, while players continue to report late spawns.
  • With the road map ending in April, the road map January–April teases bird, wind, and umbrella icons, implying Embark will follow with another road map after April.
