Where to Find Music Albums in ARC Raiders

by

The winter update for ARC Raiders, called Cold Snap, has arrived! Players can now take part in the Flickering Flames event and unlock cool rewards. One of the event challenges involves finding scattered items around Topside, including Music Albums. If you’re looking to complete this challenge and earn Merits, here’s a guide to the best places to find those Music Albums in ARC Raiders.

How to Get Music Albums in ARC Raiders (Best Locations)

As a big ARC Raiders fan, I’ve been hunting for Music Albums, and they’re a tricky blue rarity trinket to find! You usually stumble across them while looting residential or commercial areas – think buildings, plazas, and those creepy abandoned houses. But honestly, the best place I’ve had luck is around the houses near Abandoned Highway Camp on the Buried City map. That spot seems to spawn them pretty consistently, which is awesome!

Bringing a Raider Hatch Key will greatly simplify your escape with the Music Album, so it’s highly recommended you take one on this run.

Everyone knows these buildings have great loot, but it’s best to only go there when there are between 27 and 29 minutes left in the raid – that way, someone else hasn’t already taken everything. Be aware this area often sees player-versus-player combat, so it’s a good idea to use the “Don’t Shoot” gesture when you approach to avoid unwanted fights.

After entering the first house near the Raider Hatch, go upstairs and jump through the window to get to the adjacent building. This apartment contains cabinets, wardrobes, weapon cases, and other containers you can search to find the Music Album in ARC Raiders.

After you finish up, go back the way you came and enter the building across from the Raider Hatch. Continue up the stairs, but be careful of Fireballs and Pops – they might notice you and attack!

Right at the top of the stairs, you’ll find a locked door you can force open. Behind it is a gold mine filled with items, and it’s a great place to search for a Music Album. Be sure to check all the drawers, filing cabinets, suitcases, and backpacks in the room – they’re the most likely spots to find one.

Okay, so once I finally managed to get the Music Album blueprint, I used the Raider Hatch to quickly get back to Speranza – thankfully I’d grabbed a Raider Hatch Key earlier! Then, I donated the album to the Flickering Flames event, and wow, I got a huge boost – 1000x Merit Points in ARC Raiders! It was totally worth it.
