❄️ 冰封之路 Frozen Trail - 官方公告
Embark 官方资讯随着我们迈向十月,Frozen Trail 更新也越来越近。我们想借此机会,分享自公布更新策略调整以来团队一直在做的工作。
早在五月,我们就宣布将转向「更少、更大」的更新模式。我们知道这意味着两次大版本之间的间隔会更长,非常感谢每一位在我们持续推出项目、活动、新交易商以及基于玩家反馈的优化内容时始终与我们同行的玩家!
在幕后,我们的工作重心始终牢牢锁定在 Frozen Trail 上。这将是自游戏上线以来最大的一次更新,并致力于回应社区提出的诸多普遍疑问。过去几个月积累的经验几乎惠及了游戏的每一个部分。下面来看看我们近期在做的一些内容。
新前沿 The Next Frontier
全新地图 · New Map
Frozen Trail 的核心是团队最新打造的地图。Shani 将号召各位 Raider 调查从群山之外传来的前所未有的信号。这里发生了大事——谁能拒绝成为首批侦察队的一员呢?
探索一座隐匿于铁锈地带边缘、高耸群山脚下的严酷冰封定居点。这里曾是繁荣的村庄、工厂、研究设施与天文台的所在,如今早已荒废。
新地图的开发以令人振奋的全新方式挑战了我们的关卡设计团队。我们专注于打造一个更具垂直纵深、探索性与发现机遇的宏大环境。你将在空中与地下遭遇威胁,穿行于任何 Raider 都未曾见过的场景。
我们最近完成了一轮用户体验调研测试,团队正在持续迭代,以确保这张新地图尽可能令人兴奋。

"At the heart of Frozen Trail is our newest map. Shani will call upon Raiders to investigate an unprecedented signal emanating from beyond the mountains. Something big has happened here – could anyone resist being a part of the initial scouting party?"
"Explore a harsh, frozen settlement nestled beneath towering mountains at the edge of the Rust Belt. Once home to thriving villages, factories, research facilities, and an observatory, long since abandoned."
"Building the new map has challenged our level design team in exciting new ways. We've focused on creating an ambitious environment with greater verticality, exploration, and opportunities for discovery. You'll encounter threats above and below ground, and navigate environments that no Raiders have seen before."
"We've recently completed a round of user experience research testing, and our team is currently iterating to ensure the new map is as exciting as possible."
全新高难度挑战 New High-level Challenge
全新 ARC 行动 · New ARC Operation
Frozen Trail 更新还将带来一个规模庞大的全新 ARC 行动,专为渴望更进一步挑战自己的资深 Raider 打造。
在不剧透太多的前提下,这项新活动围绕开发过程中愈发重要的核心理念展开:有意义的抉择、动态变化的遭遇,以及需要合作与审慎判断的时刻。
成功绝非易事。你需要在战斗、团队协作、风险与生存之间寻求平衡——这将是 ARC Raiders 迄今最紧张刺激的体验之一,回报那些勇于迎接挑战的人。
更多细节我们留待日后全面揭晓——但我们已迫不及待想让你亲自体验。

"The Frozen Trail update will also introduce an enormous new ARC Operation designed for experienced Raiders looking to push themselves even further."
"Without giving too much away, this new activity is built around many of the ideas that have become increasingly important to us throughout development: meaningful decisions, dynamic encounters, and moments that demand cooperation and careful judgment."
"Success won't come easily. You'll need to balance combat, teamwork, risk, and survival in what we believe will be one of the most intense experiences ARC Raiders has offered to date – one that rewards those willing to rise to the challenge."
"We'll save more details for the full reveal later – but we're excited for you to experience it for yourselves."
全新 ARC、全新威胁 New ARC, New Threats
新敌人 · New Enemies
我们的团队一直在紧锣密鼓地开发随新地图一同登场的全新 ARC 威胁,每一个都旨在挑战你已习以为常的移动、战斗与应变方式。这些新敌人小到机灵捣蛋的麻烦制造者,大到能让你寸步难行的巨型机械。
制作全新 ARC 是开发中最复杂的环节之一。从早期概念与动画,到赋予它们独特「生命火花」的行为与机器学习系统,每个敌人都要经历数月的反复打磨。我们认为等待是值得的,也迫不及待想听到你的看法。
查看英文原文
"Our team has been hard at work developing new ARC threats that will arrive alongside the new map, each designed to challenge the ways you've learned to move, fight, and adapt. These new ARC enemies range from a small and nifty problem-maker to an enormous machine that will halt you in your tracks."
"Creating new ARC is one of the more involved parts of development. From early concepts and animation to behavior and machine learning systems that give them their distinctive "spark of life", every enemy goes through months of iteration to get right. We think it'll be worth the wait, and we can't wait to see what you think."
深化成长系统 Deepening Progression
哨站 Outpost · 技能树 Skill Tree
Frozen Trail 也在重新定义成为一位 Raider 的意义。
持续塑造我们思路的一条经验是:最有价值的战斗源于有意义的抉择。这影响了我们在 Frozen Trail 中设计成长系统的方式,让你能在铁锈地带打造更深入的自我身份。
你的 Raider 巢穴一直尽职尽责,但现在是时候扩展了。我们正在构建更深的成长系统,为玩家提供更多塑造自己旅程、迈向长期目标的方式。
正因如此,你的 Raider 将有机会进驻一个全新的空间——哨站(Outpost)。在数月处于下风、藏身地下的日子之后,是时候向 ARC 发起反击了。装饰你的哨站、研究世界的全新元素,迈出收复地表的第一步。
除了哨站,我们还在调整技能树,让你对想成为何种 Raider 拥有更多自主权。Raider 卡组也在我们的关注范围内,重点是让它们对玩家更具吸引力与回报。

"Frozen Trail is also evolving what it means to be a Raider."
"One lesson that's continued to shape our thinking is that the most rewarding raids are driven by meaningful choices. That's influenced how we're approaching progression throughout Frozen Trail, allowing you to build a deeper identity in the Rust Belt."
"Your Raider Den has served you well, but it's time to expand. We're building deeper progression systems, giving players more ways to craft their own journey and build toward long-term goals."
"That's why your Raider will have the opportunity to inhabit a new space; the Outpost. After spending months on the back foot, hiding underground, it's time to start taking the fight to ARC. Decorate your Outpost, research new elements of the world, and take your first steps to reclaiming the surface."
"On top of Outposts, we're also adjusting the Skill Tree to give you more agency over the kind of Raider you want to become. Raider Decks have also been on our radar, with the focus on making them more engaging and rewarding for players."
还有更多 And More…
武器 · 道具 · 外观 · 更多惊喜
以上只是 Frozen Trail 新增内容的一小部分。
团队仍在持续开发能提升你体验的新内容,包括新武器(以及个性化的方式!)、道具、外观、乐器,以及更多我们会在临近上线时公布的其他惊喜。
除此之外,我们还将通过匹配系统、反作弊、稳定性与体验优化方面的持续工作,不断完善 ARC Raiders 的核心体验。这些改进或许不会总是头条功能,但它们是让每场战斗都公平且愉快的至关重要的一环。

"These are just a few of the additions coming in Frozen Trail."
"The team is continuing to work on new content that will enhance your experience, as well as new weapons (and ways to personalize them!), gadgets, cosmetics, instruments, and plenty of other surprises we'll talk about closer to launch."
"Alongside all of that, we'll continue improving the core ARC Raiders experience through ongoing work on matchmaking, anti-cheat, stability, and quality-of-life updates. While these improvements may not always be the headline features, they remain a critical part of making every raid feel balanced and enjoyable."
