ARC Raiders Hotfix 1.21.0 Closes Wall Exploit and Fixes Crashes Ahead of Flashpoint

Embark says weekly patches focus on quick fixes ahead of larger end‑of‑month drops.

Overview

  • The hotfix, which launched Tuesday as version 1.21.0 on PC and 1.000.031 on consoles, is a small cross‑platform download.
  • The patch shuts down a major exploit that let players walk through walls while carrying Fuel Cells or Field Crates, restoring fair runs in the extraction shooter.
  • Embark also fixed a recurring DirectX 11 crash on PC and resolved geometry bugs that trapped players or spawned ARC inside map walls.
  • Two store items arrived with the update: the Spyglass Set melee tool and the Cartographer backpack cosmetic, each priced at 700 Coins.
  • The studio says weekly updates target stability and store rotations, with the Flashpoint expansion slated for March 31 to deliver the next big content drop.
