New Raider Tool New Backpack Set 3 Bug Fixes Flashpoint Teased

Flashpoint Update — Coming Next Week

Embark confirmed in the patch notes that the Flashpoint update is in the final stretch: "The team is hard at work getting the Flashpoint update ready for next week." This will be the month's major content release. They also clarified their patch cadence going forward: smaller patches like this one focus on QoL and store rotations, while larger content-heavy updates land at the end of each month.

New Content

New Raider Tool

A new Raider Tool has been added to the game. No further details were included in the patch notes — likely available through the in-game store or as part of the store rotation.

New Backpack Set

A new cosmetic Backpack set has been added alongside the Raider Tool — part of the store rotation accompanying this patch.

Bug Fixes

DirectX 11 Crash Fixed

Fixed a crash that would sometimes occur when running the game with DirectX 11. This affected a subset of players on older hardware or those who explicitly chose DX11 over DX12.

Harvester Stuck Bug Fixed

Fixed an issue where players could get stuck inside the Harvester or between destroyed ARC parts. This could leave players trapped with no way to free themselves mid-raid.

Wall-Walk Exploit Patched

Fixed an exploit that allowed players to walk through walls while picking up a Fuel Cell or Field Crate. This could be used to access out-of-bounds areas or bypass intended map geometry.
