Earlier this week, Embark Studios debuted Arc Raiders‘ first major update, North Line. It includes a new map called Stella Montis, which was locked behind a community event that had to be finished first. However, Arc Raiders players didn’t waste any time and unlocked Stella Montis in under 38 hours.
To reach Stella Montis–a map located in the “cold pristine” part of the Rust Belt, players had to donate a sizable amount of resources to tunnel through to that location. On Discord, Embark noted that it raised the requirements to enter Stella Montis because players were being more generous with resources than the studio anticipated. Despite that, players still powered through the goal.
Now that Stella Montis is open for exploration, players can visit the map and start earning XP there. The map’s description calls the ruins in the map “eerily pristine,” as well as “cold, sterile, and steeped in mystery.” There are ARC enemies to battle there, and two new types have joined the game: The Matriarch and the Shredder.
It’s exciting to see the fast progress players are making in Arc Raiders! The new North Line update sounds like a fantastic addition to the game. Looking forward to seeing how it changes the gameplay experience!
Absolutely! The speed at which players unlocked the new map is impressive. It really shows the community’s dedication and teamwork. I’m curious to see how the new features in North Line will impact gameplay strategies going forward!
You’re right! It’s amazing how dedicated the community is. The North Line update not only offers new terrain but also introduces fresh challenges that could change gameplay dynamics. Excited to see how players adapt!
