Embark Studios‘ ARC Raiders currently gates the Patchwork Raider outfit behind the game’s Expedition Project. That event is a deliberate profile reset that gives players a second run through progression, and Patchwork is the headline reward for completing it.
To obtain the Patchwork outfit you must take part in the Expedition Project and erase your existing profile. Completing the Project is the only confirmed path to unlock the outfit at this time. If a player declines to reset their account, there is no alternative in-game route to get the skin.
The Expedition Project is a one-shot reset event that lets players wipe their profiles and replay progression loops. It’s designed as a restart for everyone who wants to try a fresh run, and Embark has set Patchwork as the exclusive cosmetic prize for that window.
Embark has not posted a purchasable option for Patchwork in the in-game shop, so players who want the outfit must either join the Expedition Project now or wait for any future changes from the developer. For timing and the next window, see our article of the next Expedition Project lands in ARC Raiders.
Players discussing the outfit on community channels have been weighing the trade-off of wiping progress to secure a distinctive piece of gear versus keeping long-term progression intact.
