Arc Raiders Free Ryder Skin Guide: How to Get the Ryder Outfit

Besides the dynamic weather and the new gameplay challenges, the latest Arc Raiders update by Embark Studios has added a significant number of features.

The free Ryder cosmetic is just a different color of the already existing Ryder outfit, which is one of the most popular customization options in Arc Raiders and can now be accessed via a crossover with Embark Studios’ other game, The Finals. It is not a new character skin, but a color-themed version of the character that is mostly referred to as the Red Ryder variant.

The Cross-Game Requirement

You can get this free reward only from “The Finals,” which is another multiplayer shooter game by Embark Studios.

“The Finals” is a free-to-play game and is accessible on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox platforms.

How to Unlock the Free Ryder Skin

Step 1: Install the game on your preferred platform. It is a free-to-play game.
Step 2: Make sure that you are using the same Embark account ID for The Finals and Arc Raiders. If the accounts are separate or different, progress will not be updated.
Step 3: Complete three full matches of any mode. It does not matter if you are winning or which mode you play; just complete the matches.
Step 4: Launch Arc Raiders after these three matches. The reward should be your in-game mail if it is not, then directly in your cosmetics inventory.

The Rewards

Upon completing the requirements, you will get:

Ryder (Red): A recolored version of the Ryder outfit.
Salvager (Black): A cosmetic backpack item.
Soccer Finals Ticket: A backpack charm.

Conclusion

The free outfit for Ryder is probably one of the easiest and most accessible cosmetic rewards in Arc Raiders. It can be obtained by playing three matches of The Finals with the same linked Embark ID. The way is clear and does not require any money, difficult achievements, or long grinding. Such a crossover is an excellent demonstration of how the developers can be player-friendly when they release rewards to the community.
