Arc Raiders is set to introduce two features in a major update, allowing players to expand their stash and carry key items between Expeditions. The developer, Embark Studios, revealed that a new Trader from a nomadic tribe of surface-dwellers will be introduced to help combat the issue of over-analysing items and their storage. The trader will also offer unique rewards, rare items, and cosmetics in exchange for high-value items. On a weekly rotation, players will be able to barter for goods and answer requests for specific rare items. The update is part of a broader set of improvements expected later this year, including regular bug, balance, and quality-of-life updates.
