    Live Update 1.45.0

    Expedition 5 opens alongside the Ascending the Mountain Raider Project. Embark is retiring the Cred currency ahead of the Frozen Trail update and moved the game from Unreal Engine 5.3 to 5.7.

    • —Expedition 5 opens alongside the Ascending the Mountain Raider Project.
    • —Cred is retired on 8 October; Raider Deck rewards carry into a new system and claimed rewards are kept.
    • —Unreal Engine moves from 5.3 to 5.7.
    • —Fixed a squad becoming stuck after a member signed out and rejoined, which had blocked ready-up entirely.

    For your guild
    Cred stops being usable on 8 October and any balance expires with it, so tell members to spend down with Shani or on Raider Deck rewards. Starting an Expedition no longer wipes quests by default, which removes a reason to stagger departures.

    Store Update 1.43.0

    Store update 1.43.0 adds the Roamer set and runs the Phantom Targets event until September 6, paying the Anomalia outfit and raider tokens for hunting glitched Wasps. Embark also warned that account sharing now carries a ban risk under its anti-cheat work.

    For your guild
    The account-sharing warning is the one to pass on: if someone else plays on a member's account and is caught cheating, the account is banned regardless of who did it. Squads that share logins to cover a raid should stop.

    Live Update 1.39.0

    Embark is testing a matchmaking change where defending yourself carries no weight at all in your playstyle estimate, down from reduced weight. Only fights you start count. Trinkets from 1.33.0 now stack, and Seeker and Wolfpack damage is consistent again.

    For your guild
    A crew that fights back in contested zones should stop drifting into aggressive lobbies, because only the fights you pick still shape your estimate. Worth re-testing your rules of engagement while the test runs.
