ARC Raiders Expedition Countdown

An Expedition in Arc Raiders is a repeatable feature that lets players reset their Raider’s progress in return for both permanent and temporary rewards. The third Expedition window is closed now, and the fourth is coming really soon. If you want to wipe your Raider and start fresh with all the bonuses that come with it, you need to start working on the Expedition Project right now.

When Does ARC Raiders Expedition Start?

Arc Raider’s fourth Expedition officially opens on Monday, June 22, 2026, at 7:30 AM PT. Here’s when it opens in your time zone:

One important thing to note: the wipe end date hasn’t been confirmed yet. Based on how the third Expedition ran, the wipe window could last anywhere from five days to two full weeks after the Window opens. Embark Studios is still working on how they’re handling the damage-dealt mechanic that caused controversy last time, so the exact format of the fourth Expedition might still change before June. Also, completing the Project and wiping is entirely your choice. Nothing forces you to reset. If you had a solid third Expedition run and want to keep your progress, you can still complete the Project without wiping.

What Carries Over If You Already Started?

If you made any progress on the previous Expedition Project and didn’t finish it, that progress is saved. You pick up right where you left off instead of starting from scratch. When you do complete a full wipe, you get to keep a lot more than most people expect. Your unlocked maps, workshop stations, Codex entries, Raider Tokens, Cred, every cosmetic, and your Trophy Display Project progress all carry over. The main thing you’re resetting is your Raider’s actual gear and character progression. In exchange, you get bonus Skill Points and extra Stash Slots, which make your fresh start stronger than the last one.

Here’s a full breakdown of every stage:

Is the ARC Raiders Expedition Worth Doing?

If you care about long-term progress in ARC Raiders, then yes, it can be worth it. Resetting your Raider gives you bonus Skill Points and extra Stash Slots, which can make your next run much easier. Embark Studios is also improving the rewards system after players complained about the third Expedition, so the upcoming wipe could be handled better. If you don’t want to reset your Raider, finishing the Project still gives you rewards. It really depends on how attached you are to your current progress and if Embark Studios adds good enough bonuses in June to make starting over worth it.

No matter what you choose, don’t wait too long. The timer is running, so you’d better start grinding now!
