Arc Raiders players are still baffled on how to progress Hidden Bunker quest

It’s been a number of days now since Embark Studios introduced the Hidden Bunker Map Condition in Arc Raiders, with groups flocking to the objective to crack it open.

While opening the bunker itself was solved almost immediately, no one has yet progressed the quest far enough to reap any ‘real’ rewards from it.

The Arc Raiders Hidden Bunker puzzle has still not been solved

If you’ve landed in the Spaceport map in Arc Raiders while the Hidden Bunker Map Condition has been in full swing, you will have noticed most players climbing over each other to activate four antennas.

Doing so will unlock the doors to the Hidden Bunker, which are unfortunately guarded by some pretty heavy-duty Arc enemies, like the Bastion or Bombardier, so take your best weapons.

If you do make it inside, you will have noticed the large ball-like structure, which can also be seen on the Map Condition page, meaning it’s definitely important. What’s more, if you ping this, it will return the “player pinged quest objective” message, suggesting that it is interactable at some point.

You can head deeper into the bunker and download various data at computer stations dotted throughout. This nets you some XP and points toward the accompanying Trial that many are looking to complete, sharpish.

That’s where the story ends, unfortunately. No one has managed to progress it further than this point, sparking serious confusion.

Some are even suggesting that the Hidden Bunker is, in fact, bugged and that is the reason why no one can advance.

We’re not so sure on that theory, as we’re almost certain that Embark would have come out and said there was an issue to temper expectations for now.

What we think is that there is definitely more to the puzzle that simply hasn’t been cracked. Think Destiny 2 raids, for example, these have some seriously complex mechanics that take hours upon hours to solve.

There could be a certain order the terminals need to be activated in, you may need to use a very specific item at the right point, or even simply that the next part of the puzzle will unlock in relation to the forthcoming Stella Montis map.

All we can suggest is that you jump in there yourself and get to figuring out what might come next because you might just be the first in the world to do so.
