- **fixed** — Reverted Departure sign-up for players whose sign-up behavior appears representative of the issue where they were automatically signed up after completing the associated Damage Challenge

Look out, Raiders!

We have an update regarding the Expedition-related issue where you could automatically be signed up for Departure if you had completed the associated Damage Challenge.

We want to err on the side of caution. We will revert the Departure sign-up for players whose sign-up behavior appears representative of this issue. This may be done in several waves, starting **tomorrow, July 17 11:00 AM CEST**.

**Throughout the weekend, please make sure to check the in-game Expedition tab and verify that it shows the correct information for your case. **If you had previously been signed up for departure automatically and this does not revert by the **end of day tomorrow**, please reach out to our [support team](https://id.embark.games/arc-raiders/support) as soon as possible.

If you have changed your mind and want to depart, you can still opt in to do so. Additionally, Last Call will be available as usual for those of you who aren’t able to sign up for Departure before the deadline.

We will be monitoring closely ahead of the Departure window closing and will continue working on a fix to prevent future instances of this issue. Thank you for your patience.
