Embark just dropped Live Update 1.36.0 for ARC Raiders — the patch bundles bug fixes, QoL updates, matchmaking tweaks and a fresh Expedition plus a new set of Trials. The extraction shooter keeps iterating in short, frequent cycles: the studio tunes balance and content between big seasons rather than saving everything for rare mega-patches.
What’s new
The headline of 1.36.0 is content and polish:
- New Expedition — a fresh objective for Topside runs, where the ARC presence keeps scaling up against raiders.
- New Trials — another batch of challenges with rewards.
- Matchmaking tweaks — lobby matching keeps getting adjusted, which directly affects how often you cross paths with live players.
- Bug fixes and QoL — Embark’s usual pass over UI details and stability.
Nomads and the economy of encounters
The update’s story beat is your tentative alliance with the Nomads growing stronger: they wander the streets of Speranza, bringing stories, valuable information and loot to trade. For gameplay that means reliable contacts and map knowledge matter more than ever — and any matchmaking change reshapes how crowded a raid feels.
The extraction meta keeps shifting
Every new Expedition and batch of Trials reshapes run routes and points of interest: players redistribute across the map, and the usual quiet corners of Speranza suddenly get crowded. For a raider that means pre-drop recon matters more than a memorized route — fresh content forces you to rethink extract timings and loot priorities. And matchmaking tweaks add uncertainty: lobby composition and opponent skill shift along with the patch.
What it means for software users
ARC Raiders is an extraction shooter where every client update can shift the build and memory layout that external software relies on. Even when a patch reads as “bug fixes and QoL,” the build under the hood may move.
- Update your build, don’t hand-edit offsets. After a Live Update, wait for your provider’s update instead of overriding addresses manually.
- Be careful in the first hours. On a fresh build, detection triggers sometimes ramp up after release day, not on it.
- Watch the status. We keep live statuses on the updates page.

Extraction shooters are especially patch-sensitive: a failed run costs all your loot. Don’t gamble on a previous-version config — wait for a compatibility confirmation.
