The Cold Snap update for Arc Raiders arrives on December 16, 2025, introducing a new winter weather effect with snow that changes map conditions (reduced visibility, etc.). There will also be new quests and a temporary event called Flickering Flames.
It also brings a new Raider Deck, similar to a battle pass with rewards, no new enemies or weapons, but with the seasonal content for players before the opening of an Expedition window that will allow characters to be reset for the next cycle.
See you tomorrow in the game, and bundle up, it’s going to be cold.
