Arc Raiders has launched on PC and consoles and wasted no time making noise. It surged past player count milestones in its first day, then Embark Studios jumped straight into polishing the game. Fresh Arc Raiders updates are right around the corner, as a small one just dropped, bringing quick fixes for early bugs. Here are the complete Arc Raiders patch notes for October 31.

Full Arc Raiders Update Patch Notes (October 31)

Embark has rolled out a fast hotfix Arc Raiders update to clean up early server snags and stability issues. If you were hearing robot ghosts in proximity chat or watching Steam avatars breaking your game’s performance, even with the best Arc Raiders graphics settings, the team has launched the fix for it. Restart the game to download the small 2.5 GB patch.

Want to know what is fixed in the Arc Raiders update? Here are the full patch notes:
