Arc Raiders is hosting its first-ever event, and it turns out staking our claim doesn’t involve hammers, land deeds, or any kind of frontier paperwork. Instead, it’s all about getting new currency and free cosmetics. The Staking Our Claim event basically rewards you for doing what you were already doing: looting abandoned buildings, outrunning robot death machines, and pretending you meant to take that fall damage.
Better yet, everything here is completely free: no premium pass, no surprise wallet ambush, just you, XP, and some very good gear waiting at the finish line. If you're ready to stock up on stylish apocalypse essentials, let’s get into it. Here's what you need to know.
What Is The Staking Our Claim Event?
Arc Raiders players are finally getting their hands on the game’s first-ever event, Staking Our Claim. This is a limited-time celebration that rewards you simply for doing what you already do best: surviving, scavenging, and blasting ARCs to pieces. This event introduces a unique currency, new cosmetics, and gear. The event ends on December 7.
How To Earn And Spend Merits
The backbone of the event is a new currency known as Merits. You earn one Merit for every 100 XP you accumulate.
You earn XP/merit from virtually all core gameplay activities, including taking down ARCs, looting, and completing quests. The XP-to-Merit conversion is automatic, so there’s nothing special to track: just play, gain XP, and your Merits build up. Once you earn Merits, you’ll spend them on the event’s special battle pass. Unlike a traditional premium pass, every reward is completely free.
To redeem your rewards, head to the Staking Our Claim event tab. You’ll find it in the top-right corner of the home screen. As long as you have enough Merits, you can claim all items on each page before progressing to the next. There are three total reward pages with useful gear, cosmetics, weapon mods, and Raider Tokens.
