ARC Raiders' road to Frozen Trail
Back in May, Embark traded frequent content drops for two big updates a year, and Frozen Trail is the first one under that plan. The months in between cleared the decks: the last Expedition before a pause, and a harder line on cheaters. The open question now is PvE, and the week-long toggle test is where Embark says it will get its answer.
