Voluntary Progression Reset System
Expeditions are Arc Raiders' optional progression reset: finish the Expedition Project, depart, and earn permanent account unlocks in exchange for starting fresh. The 5th Expedition departure window closes September 29, 2026 at 10:00 CEST, with no Last Call, and quest resets are now opt-in. After this one, Expeditions pause until early 2027 for a larger overhaul.
