Snackgirls react
Red: I’d set aside an evening to try it with friends. I want to see which of us gets hooked enough to arrange a second session.
Nea: Pendola Pass has my attention. I’d like to take my time exploring it with someone who knows the map, then see whether it becomes a place I want to revisit.
When the free-play window opens
The trial starts on October 8, 2026 at 09:00 UTC and ends on October 12, 2026 at 08:00 UTC. This is temporary access: it does not give you permanent ownership, and ARC Raiders is not switching to a permanently free-to-play model.
A way into Pendola Pass for newcomers
New players can access the Pendola Pass map immediately by teaming up with players who have already unlocked it. That squadmate condition matters—the offer does not grant newcomers unrestricted immediate solo access to the map.
