When is the ARC Raiders Cold Snap Update Coming Out?

ARC Raiders is getting a significant update this week called Cold Snap, rolling out to all platforms. This is one of the largest updates since the game launched on October 30th, and it will add new challenges to the map, new missions, and dynamic weather effects.

Players are eagerly awaiting the Cold Snap update for ARC Raiders. Here’s a breakdown of everything you need to know about its release.

When is Cold Snap Being Released?

The Cold Snap update is scheduled to be released on December 16th, and will likely go live around 4:30 AM Eastern Time. While Embark Studios hasn’t officially confirmed the exact time, it’s expected to be similar to the North Line launch, which happened at 4:30 AM EST (9:30 AM GMT).

Cold Snap is the biggest update to ARC Raiders since the Stella Montis addition last month. It won’t add any new maps, but it will dramatically change existing ones by covering the world in snow.

This update introduces the Flickering Flames event to ARC Raiders. Details are limited, but it’s expected to be a challenging condition – players caught outside in the snow will likely take damage. It will work much like existing map hazards such as Lush Blooms, Harvester, and Prospecting Probes.
