If you want a rare cosmetic in ARC Raiders, the Emerald Wave variant of the Electrician Backpack is being given away for free — but only while supplies last. This limited reward is part of an NVIDIA GeForce promotion, and claiming it requires both the GeForce app and a quick redemption on Embark’s site.
This guide explains exactly how to get the Emerald Wave backpack and add it to your account before the codes run out.
How to Claim the Emerald Wave Electrician Backpack for Free
The giveaway begins December 11, 2025 at 6:00 AM PT, and codes are first-come, first-served. There’s no timer — once the stock is gone, it’s gone. You must be playing ARC Raiders on PC with an NVIDIA GPU to be eligible.
Here’s how to secure a code through the GeForce app:
Step 1: Open the NVIDIA GeForce App
Start the official GeForce app on your computer. You will see a Redeem option on the left menu side.
Step 2: Locate the ARC Raiders Reward
In the Redeem section, find the banner for the ARC Raiders Electrician Backpack: Emerald Wave Variant. It is often situated at the top, especially on the day of the release.
Step 3: Commence the Redemption
Click the ARC Raiders gift and let the prompts lead the way. NVIDIA will take you to a web page where you can sign in, go through a security check, and credited your claim.
After you have done that, a code associated with your account will be displayed on the site. Copy it — it is going to be needed for the subsequent step.
How to Redeem Your Code in ARC Raiders
After receiving your code from NVIDIA, you must redeem it through Embark Studios:
Step 1: Go to Embark’s Reward Redemption Page
Visit the official Embark giveaway page.
Step 2: Sign In
Select the platform where you play ARC Raiders and log in.
Step 3: Enter Your Code
Paste the code you received from NVIDIA into the redeem box and confirm. Your backpack will be linked to your account instantly.
Step 4: Equip the Backpack In-Game
Log into ARC Raiders, open your Raider tab, and choose Customization. Select the Electrician Backpack, and the Emerald Wave style will now appear as an option.
Once redeemed, the variant stays unlocked permanently — even if future updates reset other parts of your profile.
