Embark Restores Arc Raiders Events, Increases Bird City Appearances

A server-side update raises daily instances to make the event reachable across more time zones.

Overview

  • Embark confirmed on Discord that it pushed a server-side fix re-enabling the weekly map-condition schedule and increasing Bird City’s frequency, with no download required beyond a client restart.
  • Third-party tracker MetaForge now shows about five Bird City windows per day, up from three, with UK slots such as 6 pm and 10 pm offering easier access.
  • PC Gamer verified the changes in-game, reporting that events are live again and that Bird City appeared at new times previously unseen during GMT play hours.
  • The scheduling update followed a brief outage in which all map events temporarily disappeared before being restored.
  • Bird City, added on Jan. 27 in the Headwinds update for Buried City, features rare Rubber Ducks as loot, and Embark says it will keep revising timings to better cover global regions.
