This item is exclusive to the Cold Snap update. You’ll have to find a fair few to take your Trials rank to three stars (to get the best rewards). While their locations are completely random, this guide will help you out as much as possible.

How to get Frozen Raider Containers in ARC Raiders

Frozen Raider Containers are simply Raider Caches (part of the game since launch) covered in snow. All caches that you can find from frozen areas will count for the Trials in Season Two, Week One.

Naturally, you’ll need to have the Cold Snap condition active. Without this map condition, you won’t find frozen areas, and hence no containers. The screenshot below is based on the Spaceport map, but you can find caches on all the maps, as long as Cold Snap is active.

On Spaceport, most of the Frozen Raider Containers appear to be on the outer edge of the map. I have marked a few of the spots where I have found them. Ideally, you’ll be able to find many of these containers in a single raid. For better results, play with friends so that you can find more containers simultaneously.

Since the containers are embedded deep in the ground, you’ll have to look carefully. They do stick out amidst the white snow, but the environmental hazards won’t make things easier. You’ll also be taking damage from Frostbite, so carry plenty of healing items. You can also create a route based on the locations marked on the screenshot above to make things more efficient.

If you have started the Season 2 grind, make sure to check out all the tasks and how you can complete them to earn three stars in the process.
