ARC Raiders has managed to maintain a majority of its player base since launch for its unique gameplay loop and mechanics. Moreover, Embark Studios has been slowly adding new content to the game with each update.

Right now, Bird City is the best map condition to earn coins in ARC Raiders. If you're confused about where to loot in Bird City, here's a looting guide for Bird City in ARC Raiders.
Bird City Looting Guide for ARC Raiders
Bird City is a minor map condition that goes live during scheduled periods. While this map condition is active, players can get loot from Bird Nests placed in the chimneys of Old Town and West Village. Here's a look at all the bird nests in Bird City:
Depending on your spawn, you have to make your way to the lower end of the map. The main loot in Bird City is placed in the chimneys of houses in Old Town, Plaza Rosa, and West Village. There's an increase in zipline spawns, making movement on the roof easier.
The northwest part of Old Town and the areas near Plaza Rosa feature the highest concentration of bird nests. Planning your route along that area can net you the highest amount of loot in no time. Here's a list of new valuable items you can find in Bird City:
- Tropical Duck (Uncommon) - $1000
