Who does not love a free skin in Arc Raiders? Well, you can now unlock the Red Ryder outfit in Arc Raiders for free. As part of Embark Studios’ “Cold Snap” crossover with The Finals, this cosmetic requires zero cash. So, if you want to grab the free Arc Raiders Finals Red Ryder skin, follow the steps in this guide.
How to Obtain Free Arc Raiders Finals Red Ryder Skin
The free Arc Raiders skin was added with the Cold Snap update that also added the Flickering Flames event. So, in between grabbing the Candleberries and fighting frostbite, you must grab the free skin.
To unlock the free Arc Raiders Red Ryder skin, you need to complete a simple contract linked between Arc Raiders and The Finals. Follow these steps carefully:
- First, download The Finals, which is free to play on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. You do not need to buy anything or own any premium edition.
- Make sure both games are connected to the same Embark ID. This step is critical. If Arc Raiders and The Finals are not linked to the same account, your progress will not count, and the skin will not unlock.
- Once your accounts are linked, launch The Finals and select any available playlist. Casual, ranked, or limited-time modes all work.
- Complete three full matches in The Finals. You do not need to win, perform well, or meet any special conditions.
- After finishing the third match, close The Finals and launch Arc Raiders. If everything synced correctly, the free Arc Raiders Finals Red Ryder skin will unlock automatically.
Along with the Red Ryder outfit, some players also receive a black Salvager backpack variant if they own the deluxe edition, plus a Finals-themed backpack charm. In some cases, rewards may take a short while to appear, so do not panic if they are not there immediately.
The free Arc Raiders Finals Red Ryder skin is one of the easiest cosmetics to earn in the game and doubles as a smart way for Embark to connect both communities. Three matches stand between you and a limited-time outfit.
So, are you getting this free Arc Raiders Finals skin? You have only a few days to claim this reward.
No, wins and performance do not matter, as you only need to complete three matches in any mode.
In some cases, the reward takes time to sync, so it may appear after a short delay as long as players link both games with the same Embark ID.
