Patch Notes

Embark's July 14 Steam announcement says Store Update 1.37.0 is live on all platforms with two new Driftcoat outfit colour variants, black/green and red. Players who already own Driftcoat get both automatically, and Embark says no restart is required.

This is mostly a store and known-issues status update, not a released balance patch. The confirmed player-facing notes are that existing Driftcoat owners should see the new colours now, Seeker Grenades feeling weaker is tied to an unintended projectile-collision effect that Embark is still fixing, and the game signing players up for Departure after the 100,000-damage challenge is acknowledged as unintentional but not resolved yet.

Storefront checks on July 12 show ARC Raiders listed at $39.99 with a 0% discount on Steam's Store API. Microsoft's US catalog for the Xbox/PC base game now also lists $39.99 as both the current list price and MSRP, with the Deluxe Edition listed at $59.99.

This is a storefront timing update, not a gameplay patch, balance pass, quest change, reward window, map update, or platform availability change. The previously verified Xbox/Microsoft $29.99 sale window has passed, so the useful action is purchase timing rather than loadout planning.

ARC Raiders' official July 11 video is a short behind-the-scenes look at the process of designing ARC sounds. The description frames it as a peek at how the team creates ARC audio and asks players whether they recognize which ARC makes the showcased noises.

This is a community and development-flavor video, not a gameplay patch, balance pass, quest change, map update, reward window, or store rotation. The useful takeaway is audio recognition: the clip is a quick reminder that ARC sound cues can matter during play.

ARC Raiders' official July 9 post confirms the Embark summer crossover is live: complete a set of Contracts in THE FINALS to unlock the Azimuth outfit and Archaeologist backpack bundle in ARC Raiders.

This is a cross-game cosmetic reward window, not a weapon balance pass, quest update, map change, or ARC tuning change. The newly useful detail is the end date: the ARC Raiders reward path is available until July 30.
