The world of ARC Raiders is getting colder with the new Cold Snap update! This major update brings freezing weather, tougher challenges, and special winter events to the game’s Topside area. To celebrate, the game developers, Embark Studios, are offering free in-game items through a limited-time Twitch Drops campaign. Watching ARC Raiders streams on Twitch gives you a chance to unlock cool customizations for your Raider character without spending any in-game money.
How to Claim ARC Raiders Cold Snap Twitch Drops
To begin earning rewards, you first need to connect your Embark account to Twitch. After that, it’s easy:
- Visit the Embark website and sign in using your platform account
- Open your profile and go to Connected Platforms.
- Find Twitch and click Link, then sign in with your Twitch account.
- Head to Twitch and look for ARC Raiders streams.
- Watch the stream for the required amount of time (you can leave it running in the background).
- Open your Twitch Inventory to track progress.
- Click Claim Now once the reward is unlocked.
- Log into ARC Raiders, or restart the game if you’re already logged in, and the items will appear in your inventory.
To earn rewards, only watch streams that have Drops Enabled turned on – otherwise, your viewing time won’t register.
