Embark, the team behind ARC Raiders, has just amended their regional pricing to ensure it matches current economic trends. In a post on the Raiders Discord, Embark’s Oscar revealed that the new price changes, which are now live, happen “from time to time” to ensure it stays “fair” across the globe. As a result, some gamers are reporting that the price of Raider Tokens has increased slightly, so it’s worth checking your storefront to see if the prices have changed.
“Some of you will notice slight changes in pricing following a change going live today! As ARC Raiders has regional pricing, these changes will happen from time to time to ensure that our regional pricing follows the current economic trends and ensure fair pricing across the globe,” he wrote.
“See you all Topside tomorrow in the 1.27 update, stay tuned!”
While it’s not clear yet what countries have seen increases and decreases in Raider Token pricing, some gamers have taken to X, formerly Twitter, to voice their frustration. Raider Tokens tend to be used to buy cosmetics, such as backpack charms, emotes and outfits, as well as premium Raider Decks.
Regional pricing changes are especially worth flagging because Raider Tokens are tied to ARC Raiders’ cosmetics rather than direct gameplay advantages. They can be used on Raider Decks, bundles, outfits, backpacks, charms, emotes, Scrappy outfits and other cosmetics. That means the practical impact will depend on how often players buy them, rather than affecting weapon access or pure gameplay progression.
It’s also not the first time Embark has adjusted ARC Raiders pricing in response to regional differences. Ahead of launch, the studio reduced the game’s price in more than 15 countries, saying it wanted to establish a fairer global price point, with affected buyers receiving automatic refunds where applicable. This recent potential change appears to follow the same broader approach. All in all, store prices may change over time, so players should always double-check the final price in their own region before buying.
