When will Cold Snap return to ARC Raiders? Exact date and time

The winter might be over in ARC Raiders, but the Cold Snap modifier will be back as a permanent addition to the Topside very soon.

Cold Snap was removed after completion of the Flickering Flames project earlier in January. However, Embark has announced that the map event will be back in the rotation pool. If you’re interested in diving into the frozen lands and finding Candleberries, this guide will help you out with all the available information.

ARC Raiders Cold Snap release date and time

The Cold Snap map modifier will be available in ARC Raiders on Feb. 10. This is a permanent addition that will be present until Embark removes it once again. The rotation should be available at 12am PT/2am CT/3am ET/8am UTC/9am CET, which is the usual reset time.

However, the Cold Snap update might not be available immediately, since Embark will add it to the pool of map modifier rotations. Everything depends on how frequent Cold Snap will be as per the schedule. Some modifiers, like Bird City is only available on Buried City.

That said, I expect Cold Snap to be available on all maps barring Stella Montis.

What can we expect from Cold Snap in ARC Raiders

Since we have already had Cold Snap in the past, we have a fair idea about the challenges we will face. For starters, the parts of the map in Cold Snap will be completely frozen, and we will take damage by being exposed to the cold.

There should be exclusive resources like Candleberries that can only be found on the frozen lands. Last time, we had to collect them to complete the Flickering Flames project. It’s different this time around, but there could be more use for Candleberries.

If you’re interested in trying out Cold Snap when it arrives, you should start managing your inventories well. You’ll need certain items to survive the cold.
