ARC Raiders has released update 1.45.0, which is the last major live update until October 8th. The patch kicks off the fifth expedition, adding a new item called “Mountain Climb”, with Hornet Hunters set and ready to give up Cred coins.
The main innovation is a new stage in plot development. The attackers found traces of mysterious phantom ARC signals, which worried Shani. The source leads to a mountain beyond the confines of the conduit system, so Apollo is looking for an experimental way to get there and asks the player for help. Meanwhile, Bird City has introduced community-made rubber ducks that can be placed in shelters.
The developers also warned that Cred is about to disappear. The currency will be available until October 8th, after which it will be completely removed from the game with the Raider Decks rework. Rewards received will be retained and content from old decks will be transferred to the new rewards system.
The patch also brings some technical changes. The developers updated Unreal Engine from version 5.3 to 5.7, improving stability on PS5, redesigning the quick project selection rig, reducing Aphelion swing, and adding a new critical overload level. Many interface, sound, matchmaking, and gameplay bugs have also been fixed.
Do you still continue with the raid or decide to abandon additional operations?
