Arc Raiders‘ first content update, North Line, is coming on Thursday, Nov. 13 with a new map, community event, Arcs, weapons, and more!
Raiders will be able to break new ground as the Rust Belt expands with the Stella Montis map. However, players won’t be able to suit up and wander into the new map all willy-nilly. Instead, you’ll have to unlock it through the “Breaking New Ground” community event where raiders will have to put their differences aside to renovate the tunnels to Stella Montis. Reaching the cold and mysterious ruins in Stella Montis is just the tip of the North Line iceberg as there is a ton of new content waiting to be discovered.
Here’s when the Arc Raiders North Line update will release in your time zone and what to expect from the update.

What to expect from the Arc Raiders North Line update
The North Line update is bringing a ton of new content for raiders to enjoy. The update will kick off with the “Breaking New Ground” multiphase community event which will lead to the new map, Stella Montis. During this event, players will contribute resources to help rebuild the tunnels to Stella Montis. As you contribute resources, you’ll earn merits, which is a new event currency. Once the community has contributed enough resources and progressed through the event, Stella Montis will be released along with “Staking Our Claim” Phase 2, which is a new progression track with rewards and challenges that is available until December.
Additionally, there are two new Arc enemies: Matriarch and Shredder. The Matriarch is an Arc that is even bigger than the Queen, and it will appear in specific map conditions. The Shredder will only appear on Stella Montis, and it will keep you on your toes as you explore the new map’s narrow passageways.
Of course, with new Arcs, you’ll need new weapons to take them down. Raiders will be able to find these new weapons around Stella Montis:
- Aphelion Rifle
- Trailblazer Grenade
- Seeker Grenade
- Pulse Mine
- Deadline Mine
- Gas Mine
Last, but not least, there will be a series of new quests based in Stella Montis for raiders to discover.
