ARC Raiders Store Update 1.30.0 Patch Notes (26th May 2026)

ARC Raiders' Store Update 1.30.0 adjusts Expedition Vault pricing to push more trading, adds two Leviathan colour variants, and acknowledges ongoing Xbox crashes and PC FPS issues.

Two new Leviathan Set colour variants, Midnight and Crimson Frost, are live in ARC Raiders today, and if you already own the set they unlock automatically without a restart. Convenient, but the more interesting change in Store Update 1.30.0 is the Expedition Vault pricing adjustment.

Embrace Entertainment has been watching trade data since Ermal arrived in Speranza and decided the current pricing wasn't encouraging enough player-to-player trading. Tier one stays the same, but every tier after that now costs 200,000 flat. Flattening the upper tiers is a reasonable nudge toward the market, and I'm glad they acted on early feedback rather than sitting on it for a month.

On a less positive note, the team confirms it's aware of crashes affecting Xbox players and FPS drops on PC since 1.29.0, with fixes still in progress. No timeline given, which isn't ideal for players hitting those issues right now. Ermal's new weekly offers also go live today at 6am PDT. Everything in the update is listed below.

Full Patch Notes

Raiders!

We have a little store update today with two new colour variants for the Leviathan Set at the store now, Midnight and Crimson Frost. If you already own the Leviathan Set, they will be unlocked automatically. No need to restart the game!

After analyzing data and the early feedback since Ermal appeared in Speranza, we are adjusting the Expedition Vault pricing this week to encourage more trading. Tier one price will remain the same and all following levels will cost 200.000.

This week Ermal will have a new set of exciting offers starting today at (6am PDT, 1pm UTC, 3pm CEST).

We will continue monitoring data and feedback for next week!

We are also aware of crashes happening to players on Xbox, as well as FPS issues on PC since 1.29.0. We are actively investigating and working on solutions for these issues. We’ll keep you posted, thank you for your reports.

A note on live updates:

As we communicated in our blog about the changes to how we update ARC Raiders, live updates are going to work just a little differently from what you’re used to.

We plan to deliver a live update every three weeks. These will vary in size and scope, but we will use each one as an opportunity to address your feedback. In between these live updates, we will still be updating and hotfixing when needed, with store and Trials rotations every week. We believe that this process will give us the time and focus we need to make changes that are important to the community.

See you Topside,
