ARC Raiders Legacy Pass is where the old Raider Deck rewards went after the Frozen Trail 2.0 update on 8 October 2026. Rather than losing the cosmetics and Raider Tokens you had been working towards, you can now find them together in a free Reward Pass. Anything already earned remains unlocked, while missed rewards can still be obtained by making Legacy your active pass.
The change also retired Cred and introduced Reward Points earned through daily Feats. Those points only advance whichever pass you have selected, which can be confusing if you switch between Legacy and Frozen Trail. This guide explains how to find the old rewards, activate Legacy, collect what you missed and decide which progression track is worth your time.
How to unlock and activate ARC Raiders Legacy Pass
Open the Reward Pass menu in Speranza. Alongside the new Frozen Trail pass, you’ll find the Legacy Pass containing the earlier Raider Deck rewards. Select Legacy and set it as your active Reward Pass. Once activated, the Reward Points from completed Feats advance Legacy instead of Frozen Trail.
You do not need to buy the Frozen Trail Premium upgrade to use the ARC Raiders Legacy Pass. Embark explicitly describes Legacy as a single free pass, keeping existing Raider Deck cosmetics and Raider Tokens available. If the menu already marks a reward as granted, that means it was earned before the update and your account retains it.
Check which pass is active before starting your daily challenges. Only one pass can receive points at a time. If Frozen Trail is selected, new points won’t progress Legacy, and switching afterwards doesn’t retroactively send the points to a second pass.
Which old Raider Decks are included in ARC Raiders Legacy Pass?
Embark says the ARC Raiders Legacy Pass combines the cosmetic rewards and Raider Tokens from the earlier Raider Deck system. Community records identify Ryder & Voyager, Goalie and Surgeon among the older free Raider Decks. Embark confirms that the previous Raider Deck cosmetics and Raider Tokens now sit in the combined Legacy track. Instead of navigating those old Cred pages, you work through the unified Legacy option in the Reward Pass menu.
The earlier Raider Decks were arranged into pages with their own Cred requirements. The new system is not a separate store where you repurchase each item at its old price. If you’re returning after a break, open Legacy and look at the individual reward tiles to identify which cosmetics are already yours and which remain available to earn.
There is no developer-published level-by-level Legacy reward count to rely on. Open the Legacy track and look for the items marked as granted; the remaining tiles are what you can still work towards. Your old rewards have not disappeared simply because their original Deck pages were retired.
Do you keep your old ARC Raiders Legacy Pass cosmetics?
Yes. Previously earned Raider Deck cosmetics stay unlocked under Legacy. They are shown as granted instead of disappearing when Cred was retired. That includes the eligible cosmetic items already claimed before the update, so you don’t have to re-earn them just because the deck interface changed.
If you cannot find a favourite outfit or accessory, check both the ARC Raiders Legacy Pass and the relevant character customisation category. An item might show as granted on the reward track but still need to be selected in the appearance menu. The October 20 update also fixed an old Cred icon that incorrectly appeared on some Reward Pass customisation items, so a legacy-looking label alone isn’t proof an unlock has vanished.
For a genuine missing earned reward, record the specific item and where it appears in your menus. Our Reward Pass not progressing guide explains the separate October 13 corrections to misleading end-of-round levels and how to check whether an item was actually claimed.
How to earn Reward Points for ARC Raiders Legacy Pass
The same daily Feats that progress Frozen Trail can be used for Legacy. The Frozen Trail update divided them into Easy, Medium and Hard. Easy gives 15 Reward Points and one weekly milestone progress; Medium gives 25 and two; Hard gives 50 and three. Those difficulty rewards do not change just because you’ve selected the ARC Raiders Legacy Pass.
| Feat type | Reward Points | Weekly progress |
|---|---|---|
| Easy | 15 | 1 |
| Medium | 25 | 2 |
| Hard | 50 | 3 |
The weekly milestones award 250 Reward Points each at four, eight and twelve progress, so there are another 750 points available per week through bonuses. These flow to the selected pass as well. Feats rotate daily, and rerolls can help you replace tasks that don’t fit your next raid. Check the active pass before claiming their Reward Points.
For a shorter session, pick an Easy or Medium Feat that fits your next raid. A Hard Feat gives more points, but can take longer when you need a specific enemy or weapon. Reaching the weekly milestone thresholds is also worthwhile, as each awards another 250 points to whichever pass you currently have selected.
ARC Raiders Legacy Pass versus Frozen Trail: what is different?
Legacy exists mainly to preserve and complete the rewards from the previous Raider Decks. Frozen Trail is the new 60-level progression track introduced with the October update, with free weapons, gadgets, cosmetics and four Pendola Pass keys. Frozen Trail also has an optional Premium cosmetic track purchased with Raider Tokens; Legacy is free.
| Feature | Legacy | Frozen Trail |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Older Raider Deck rewards | New 2.0 rewards |
| Price to progress | Free | Free track; optional paid Premium cosmetics |
| Currency earned through Feats | Reward Points | Reward Points |
| Already earned older cosmetics | Kept as granted | Not the legacy track |
| New weapons and gadgets | Not the focus of Legacy | Free track includes gameplay gear |
If you’re after the Grappling Hook blueprint, new weapons or Pendola Pass keys, choose Frozen Trail and follow our full 60-level reward guide. If your goal is to finish a favourite old outfit, return to ARC Raiders Legacy Pass. Both tracks are connected through the same Reward Points system, but your active selection decides where the progress goes.
What happened to unused Cred after the October 8 update?
Cred was retired when Reward Points replaced it. Embark said in its September 1.45.0 update messaging that leftover Cred could be used up until October 8 and would expire with Frozen Trail. It was not converted into a bank of Reward Points for the new pass.
That matters if you had a large Cred balance but had not yet claimed the rewards. Your already unlocked cosmetics remain available under Legacy, but unused old Cred itself isn’t a shortcut through the new reward levels. To continue the ARC Raiders Legacy Pass after Frozen Trail launched, earn new points through Feats instead.
Does ARC Raiders Legacy Pass expire?
Embark says the ARC Raiders Legacy Pass remains available to progress by choosing it as your active pass. No specific expiry date was announced in the Frozen Trail notes. That means you can focus on the new rewards first and return to finish older cosmetics later.
You can switch back and forth without losing claimed cosmetics. Points already earned stay on the pass to which they were applied, so make your selection before completing more Feats.
Should you finish ARC Raiders Legacy Pass first?
That depends on which rewards you’ll actually use. Returning players close to completing a favourite old outfit may want to activate Legacy until it’s done. Newer players interested in useful tools will probably get more immediate value from the new Frozen Trail free rewards, since its early levels include weapons and the Grappling Hook, and later levels include keys.
If you’re already doing many daily challenges and don’t want to forget which pass is active, focus on one until reaching a reward you care about, then switch. Your other rewards aren’t deleted by changing the active selection. You can finish ARC Raiders Legacy Pass without buying Premium or the Collector Set. Both paid options relate to the newer Frozen Trail track and its extra cosmetics.
