About the game

ARC Raiders

The ARC Raiders battle pass now exists, but Embark calls it the Reward Pass, and the first one, the Frozen Trail Pass, arrived with the 2.0 update on October 8, 2026.

This page collects what Embark, Steam and players say about the levels, the new Reward Points, the Feats that feed them and the Premium track, and it marks what nobody has confirmed.

TL;DR: The Frozen Trail Pass has 60 levels on a Free and a Premium track. Reward Points replaced Cred and go to whichever pass is active. Feats pay 15, 25 or 50 points, and three weekly milestones pay 250 each. Premium comes with the $29.99 Collector Set. Embark has not published points per level or an end date.

What is the ARC Raiders Reward Pass? (quick answer)

Embark's 2.0 patch notes describe the Reward Pass as "our new progression system and the evolution of Raider Decks". The first pass, the Frozen Trail Pass, has 60 levels across a Free and a Premium track.

Your old Raider Decks were not deleted. They moved into a Legacy Pass, and rewards you had already unlocked are kept and show as granted. Only one pass can be active at a time, so your points go to whichever one you select.

Reward Points replace Cred

Cred, the old currency tied to Raider Decks, is gone. Embark says it has been replaced by Reward Points, "a new currency that's automatically applied toward your progress on whichever pass you currently have active."

That means there is nothing to spend. Points only fill the active pass, so picking the wrong pass in the menu is the one mistake worth avoiding. For the other currencies, see our ARC Raiders currency guide.

How Feats and weekly milestones work

Embark split Feats into three categories, and each one now pays Reward Points and weekly milestone progress.

Feat tierReward PointsWeekly milestone progress
Easy15+1
Medium25+2
Hard50+3

There are three weekly milestones, and each pays 250 Reward Points:

  • Milestone 1: reach 4 weekly milestone progress.
  • Milestone 2: reach 8.
  • Milestone 3: reach 12.

After all three, you can keep finishing Feats for their own points, but no major milestone reward is granted until the weekly timer resets.

What the numbers add up to

This part is our arithmetic from Embark's figures, not an Embark statement. Clearing all three milestones is worth 750 points a week. Reaching 12 progress takes 4 Hard Feats (200 points), 6 Medium (150) or 12 Easy (180). So a full week lands between 900 and 950 points on the cheapest path, before any extra Feats.

What we cannot calculate is how many points a level costs, because Embark has not published it. That matters for the claim below.

Step-by-Step: how to level the Reward Pass

1. Pick the right pass: open the Reward Pass screen and set the Frozen Trail Pass as active. Points only go to the active pass, and the Legacy Pass is the only other one.

2. Clear Feats every day: use the tiers above. Hard Feats pay the most per Feat (50 points, +3 progress), but Easy ones are the quickest route to milestone progress.

3. Hit the three milestones: 4, 8 and 12 progress each pay 250 points. Finish them early in the week, because after that only the Feat points themselves count.

4. Decide on Premium last: the free track keeps filling either way. Buy the Collector Set only if you want the bundle cosmetics, since the standalone Premium price is unconfirmed.

Free vs Premium: what you get

Steam describes the pass as 60 levels with a Free Track for everyone and a Premium Track that adds "up to 50 additional rewards". The Premium Track includes exclusive Raider cosmetics and up to 1,150 Raider Tokens in total.

Embark's notes add that 5 of the 14 new Weapon Stencils and 4 of the 100 new Outpost furniture designs are exclusive to the Premium side. The Collector Set page says Premium also unlocks the premium toggles, modifications and colorways for the new outfits.

Price and the Collector Set

The only price we could verify is the Frozen Trail Collector Set at $29.99 on Steam. It bundles the Premium Track with the Renzo outfit, the Dragon's Breath stencil, a Bob hairstyle, a Retro Sofa recipe, a Banjo blueprint and 2,400 Raider Tokens.

Steam says the Premium Track "can also be obtained separately", but we found no separate price, so we are not quoting one. A Reddit user asked whether buying the Collector Set after the pass is wasted. Replies guessed about token refunds, and none cited Embark, so treat that as unanswered.

What players are saying

The community has two live complaints. On grind, one r/ArcRaiders poster wrote that to finish all 60 levels "you need to complete all daily and weekly feats for a total of five and a half weeks". We cannot verify that without the points per level, so read it as a player estimate.

On expiry, a reply under "Will new reward pass expire?" says: "Its same as Decks, but on steroids. So no, but also you get next one with another major update which should be in 6 months." That is one player's reading, not an Embark promise.

Embark itself lists one related bug: after buying Premium, the lock icon can stay on premium rewards even though they are unlocked.

Our take

This is a research page, not a play report. We have not levelled the pass ourselves, so every figure above is Embark's, Steam's or a player's, and the weekly arithmetic is ours.

On paper the structure is fairly generous: there is a free track, the weekly milestones reward steady play, and old Deck progress survives in the Legacy Pass. What decides whether it feels fair is still missing, namely points per level, a separate Premium price and an end date. Until Embark publishes those, I would not pay for Premium on its own.

For the rest of the update, see our Frozen Trail preview, the Outpost guide and the Pendola Pass guide.
