ARC Raiders Reward Pass Guide: 60 Levels & Rewards

The ARC Raiders Reward Pass launches with Frozen Trail on October 8, 2026 and replaces the old Raider Deck structure with a new 60-level progression system. If you are trying to understand Free vs Premium rewards, how Feats level the pass, what happens to old Raider Decks, or whether Premium is worth buying, this guide covers everything currently confirmed.

Embark has revealed Free, Premium, and Legacy tracks, but some details still need launch-day confirmation, including the full 60-level reward table and the final Raider Token totals.

What Is the ARC Raiders Reward Pass?

The Reward Pass is a new progression system launching with the ARC Raiders Frozen Trail update. Embark describes it as an evolution of Raider Decks, with a larger structure built around Free, Premium, and Legacy rewards.

The Frozen Trail Reward Pass contains 60 levels. Players progress through the pass by completing Feats, with the Free Track available to everyone and the Premium Track adding extra rewards on top.

The old Raider Deck system is not simply disappearing. Existing Decks move into the new Legacy Pass, which preserves your current progress and lets you continue working toward those older rewards.

For the official overview of the system, see Embark's Frozen Trail First Look.

Reward Pass vs Raider Decks

The biggest difference is scale. Raider Decks were separate reward paths, while the Frozen Trail Reward Pass combines a 60-level seasonal-style progression structure with Free and Premium tracks, then keeps older Deck content available through Legacy.

Embark is also retiring Cred when Frozen Trail launches, so the Reward Pass becomes a much more important part of ARC Raiders progression from October 8 onward.

ARC Raiders Reward Pass Quick Overview

Here is the current confirmed structure before Frozen Trail launches. The complete level-by-level reward list and exact completion pace still need to be verified in the live game.

How Does the ARC Raiders Reward Pass Work?

The basic loop is simple: play ARC Raiders, complete Feats, move through the 60 Reward Pass levels, and claim the rewards attached to your active track.

1. Complete Feats

Embark specifically says the Free Pass rewards are unlocked by completing Feats. This makes Feats much more important once Frozen Trail launches because they are directly connected to Reward Pass progression.

2. Progress Through Reward Pass Levels

The pass contains 60 levels. Embark has not yet published the exact number of Feats, points, or progress required per level, so we do not know whether every level needs the same amount of work.

3. Claim Free Rewards

All players can earn the Free Track rewards. This includes cosmetics, Raider Tokens, outfits, and new gameplay items.

4. Claim Premium Rewards if You Own the Premium Track

Premium adds extra rewards without replacing the Free Track. If you own Premium, you still receive the Free rewards while also unlocking the Premium items attached to those levels.

How to Level the ARC Raiders Reward Pass Fast

The fastest route will depend on how Feats are weighted after October 8. Until we can test the live system, there is no reliable reason to claim that one specific Feat route is the fastest.

The general strategy should be to prioritize Feats that overlap with normal raid goals. Completing several objectives during the same runs should be more efficient than chasing one slow challenge at a time.

• Prioritize Feats that can be completed during normal raids
• Stack compatible objectives whenever possible
• Avoid wasting full raids on a single low-value objective
• Use squad play when it makes a Feat faster or safer
• Track progress so completed objectives are replaced immediately

Once Frozen Trail launches, this section will be updated with the best Feats, average progress per hour, and the fastest tested route from Level 1 to Level 60.

ARC Raiders Free Reward Pass Explained

The Free Pass is included for all players and does not require buying the Premium Track. Embark has already confirmed a fairly broad reward pool, including both cosmetics and gameplay items.

Confirmed Free Pass rewards include:

• 200 Raider Tokens
• Five new outfits
• New gameplay items
• 20 cosmetic items
• Scrappy outfits
• Furniture
• Charms
• Attachments
• Emotes

Is the Free Reward Pass Really Free?

Yes. Embark describes the Free Pass as available to all Raiders. You still need the ARC Raiders game itself, but there is no separate Reward Pass purchase required for the Free Track.

Does the Free Pass Include Gameplay Items?

Yes. This is important because Embark's official Frozen Trail announcement explicitly lists new gameplay items among the Free Pass rewards.

We do not yet have the full list of those gameplay items or the levels where they unlock. That information will be added once the 60-level reward table is available.

ARC Raiders Premium Reward Pass Explained

The Premium Track is optional and adds extra rewards across the same 60-level Reward Pass. Embark currently lists the Premium Pass price at 1,150 Raider Tokens.

Steam says the Premium Track provides access to up to 50 additional rewards. The currently announced Premium rewards focus on visual customization rather than exclusive gameplay power.

Premium rewards include:

• Premium toggles for outfits
• Exclusive outfit colorways
• Weapon Stencils
• Hairstyles
• Raider Tokens
• Other Premium cosmetics across the 60 levels

Is the ARC Raiders Reward Pass Pay-to-Win?

Nothing currently announced suggests that the Premium Track gives exclusive gameplay power. Embark lists gameplay items under the Free Pass, while the Premium description focuses on outfit options, colorways, Weapon Stencils, hairstyles, and Raider Tokens.

That could still change when the full 60-level table is published, so we will verify every Premium reward after launch rather than assuming the final structure.

ARC Raiders Free vs Premium Reward Pass

The Free Track contains the important baseline progression, while Premium mainly expands the amount of cosmetic content you receive. Both exist inside the same 60-level Reward Pass.

All 60 ARC Raiders Reward Pass Levels & Rewards

The full 60-level Reward Pass table has not been published yet. We know the pass contains 60 levels, but Embark has only revealed broad reward categories rather than every individual level reward.

We will expand this section after launch into a complete level-by-level table covering both Free and Premium rewards.

How Many Raider Tokens Can You Earn From the Reward Pass?

This is one area where the current official listings do not fully agree.

Embark's Frozen Trail First Look says the Free Pass includes 200 Raider Tokens and the Premium Pass includes 1,150 Raider Tokens. If those figures are final, completing both tracks would provide 1,350 Raider Tokens.

However, the official Frozen Trail Collector Set page on Steam currently says the Premium Track contains up to 1,000 total Raider Tokens.

Because both pages are official sources and currently show different numbers, we recommend waiting for Embark to clarify the final launch total before planning around a specific Token return.

Can the Reward Pass Pay for the Next Premium Pass?

Potentially. Embark currently lists the Premium Pass price at 1,150 Raider Tokens, while its own First Look numbers would return 1,350 Tokens across Free and Premium.

Even Steam's lower Premium number combined with the 200 Free Tokens would appear to reach 1,200 Tokens. Still, because the two official sources disagree, we would not treat the self-funding calculation as final until the October 8 version can be checked in-game.

What Is the ARC Raiders Legacy Pass?

The Legacy Pass is how Embark is preserving the old Raider Deck system. It is free for all Raiders and combines the existing Raider Decks so players do not lose progress when Frozen Trail launches.

What Happens to Existing Raider Deck Progress?

Your existing progress is preserved. Embark says players will still be able to work toward the rewards they had not yet claimed.

Can You Still Earn Old Raider Deck Rewards?

Yes. Existing Raider Deck rewards remain available through the Legacy Pass instead of disappearing with the October update.

This is an important distinction because Frozen Trail changes the reward structure without forcing players to abandon older reward paths they were already progressing.

What Happens to Cred on October 8?

Cred retires as a currency when Frozen Trail launches on October 8. Embark has told players to spend any remaining Cred before the update arrives.

You can currently use Cred with Shani or on remaining Raider Deck rewards. Any Cred left on your account when the update launches will expire, while rewards you have already claimed remain yours.

Existing Raider Deck rewards themselves are not being deleted. They move into the new Legacy Pass structure instead.

Should You Spend All Cred Before Frozen Trail?

Yes. Embark has directly stated that remaining Cred expires on October 8, so there is no confirmed benefit to saving it for the Reward Pass system.

If you want the wider October preparation checklist, our Frozen Trail guide covers the other progression changes happening around launch.

ARC Raiders Frozen Trail Collector Set & Premium Pass

The Frozen Trail Collector Set is an optional DLC bundle that includes immediate access to the Premium Track plus a group of cosmetics and Raider Tokens.

The official Steam listing currently includes:

• Frozen Trail Reward Pass Premium Track
• Renzo outfit with multiple color options
• Renzo Helm Scrappy cosmetic
• Bob hairstyle
• Dragon's Breath Weapon Stencil
• Scasso Raider Tool
• Renegade Censer backpack attachment
• Kabuki Face Paint
• Retro Sofa Outpost furniture recipe
• Banjo Blueprint
• 2,400 Raider Tokens

The Collector Set is separate from the Free Track. You do not need the DLC to participate in the basic Reward Pass progression.

Is the ARC Raiders Premium Reward Pass Worth It?

That depends mainly on how much you value cosmetics and whether you expect to complete a large part of the 60-level pass. The currently announced Premium rewards focus on extra customization rather than exclusive combat power.

Premium makes more sense if you want:

• More cosmetic rewards across the same progression
• Premium outfit toggles and colorways
• Weapon Stencils
• Hairstyles
• Additional Raider Tokens
• A reason to complete most or all 60 Reward Pass levels

If you mainly care about gameplay items and do not care about cosmetics, the Free Track may already contain the rewards that matter most to you. The full value comparison will be much easier once every level reward is visible on October 8.

How Long Does It Take to Complete All 60 Reward Pass Levels?

Embark has not published a reliable completion-time estimate yet. We also do not know the exact amount of Feat progress required for each level or whether progression slows down later in the pass.

Once Frozen Trail launches, we will measure:

• Average Reward Pass progress per hour
• Average time for every 10 levels
• Estimated Level 1 to 60 completion time
• Best Feats for fast progression
• Solo vs squad efficiency
• Whether any daily or weekly limits affect progression

Until then, any exact claim such as “Level 60 takes 20 hours” would be guesswork.
