Arc Raiders Headwinds Update Goes Live With Safekeeper to Secure Guns on Death

The patch shifts the game's risk calculus by pairing loot security with a reusable defibrillator.

Overview

  • The Looting Mk.3 Safekeeper augment adds a safe pocket that can hold any item, including rare weapons, so they are not lost on death.
  • PC Gamer reports the Safekeeper offers 18 item slots and Heavy Shield compatibility.
  • The Tactical Mk.3 Revival augment restores one health point every five seconds and includes a reusable defibrillator on a four-minute cooldown.
  • A new Solo vs Squads option lets solo players face full teams for a 20% bonus to XP whether or not they extract.
  • Bird City becomes a permanent Buried City condition with more flying Arc enemies and denser player activity, and a three-strikes anti-cheat system is being implemented.
