Embark Studios has released update 2.3 for the fast‑paced extraction shooter ARC Raiders, focusing on equipment balance, technical fixes, and the debut of the seasonal "Souls Offering" project.

The event challenges players to scour locations for mask fragments, stone salt, and wilted flowers to craft memorial offerings honoring fallen raiders. Completing all four stages rewards participants with the exclusive "Pilgrim" backpack, a blueprint for an offering table for bases, and valuable weapon modules.

On the technical side, the patch raises the durability of the heavy shield, tweaks loot balance on frigates, resolves bugs involving Scrappy the rooster and the cat‑hook mechanic, improves client stability, and removes floating mines, making raids more predictable and comfortable.
