Hurricane Map Condition in ARC Raiders: Everything You Need to Know
The update adds a Hurricane map condition with strong winds, low visibility, and debris hazards, increasing risk for higher-tier loot and resetting player ranks after the launch.
- On February 24, Embark Studios launches the Shrouded Sky update with a Hurricane map condition, previewed in a website post and trailer showing storms hitting Arc Raiders maps like Spaceport.
- The update introduces hurricane-driven mechanics that alter in-game throwables like gas grenades and trailblazers, while giving Raiders a speed boost with the wind and draining stamina against it.
- The update includes a Raider Deck, map update, and new Arc threat, with higher threat levels boosting chances for Raider Caches and First Wave relics, and a rank reset at the next Expedition launch.
- Players must rethink tactics as strong winds alter PvP and PvE encounters, while low visibility and debris create topside hazards forcing fights over resources and blueprints.
- The roadmap shows Flashpoint in March and Riven Tides in April, while Embark continues suspensions against cheaters, CEO Patrick Söderlund said earlier this month.
