Stash

The ARC Raiders Stash starts at 64 slots and reaches 328 since update 2.0 (Oct 8, 2026), before bonuses. Five Expeditions add 60 more, for 388 by arithmetic, and Nomadic Envoy space is bought on top. Expand it from the Inventory screen with Coins.

The ARC Raiders Stash holds a maximum of 328 slots since update 2.0, "without Expedition bonuses" (Oct 8, 2026), and you expand it with Coins from the Inventory screen. Five completed Expeditions add 60 more slots at 12 each, which by simple addition gives 388; Nomadic Envoy space is bought separately on top of that. Outpost furniture holds more outside the Stash.

How to expand your Stash

1:47 Open the Inventory screen and pick Expand Stash. At launch the first expansion cost 5,000 Coins for 24 slots, taking you from 64 to 88, and each upgrade after that cost 5,000 Coins more (Game Rant, Oct 31, 2025). TheGamer's advice from launch week is to buy Stash space before anything else (Nov 4, 2025).

The two tiers added by update 2.0 have a price that no reliable source confirms as of Oct 31, 2026, so read it in game. The same goes for how the middle tiers stand today: Game Rant's figures are launch figures.

An Expedition resets your Stash and much else in exchange for permanent and temporary rewards, and the bonus slots are among the permanent ones. Since no Expedition is running or dated (Embark says they return in early 2027), a player who skipped them cannot raise this bonus for now. See Expeditions. The Stash's value also mattered for departures: 3 million Coins of value earned the full Skill Points, 600,000 a point (Feb 5, 2026).

Nomadic Envoy space

Embark's 2.0 maximum also excludes Nomadic Envoy space, which you buy separately. Vi.ki found no reliable source for its amount or price as of Oct 31, 2026. See Speranza and the Traders.

Outpost storage

0:40 Since update 2.0 the Outpost's furniture holds items outside the Stash. KeenGamer lists a Polished Weapon Rack that holds four weapons, and Den Shelves that hold 2 (Battered), 3 (Sturdy), 6 (Polished) or 7 (Ornate) slots (Oct 13, 2026). PC Gamer's headline says furniture "unlocks 100s of extra storage slots"; Vi.ki could not read the page, so it cannot give a total.

When your Stash is full

Recycle and sell first: Materials says what is safe to lose, and Money Making Guide what pays.
Items that do not fit are left out of the final departure screen's value, but count when your Expedition rewards are worked out (1.7.0, Dec 16, 2025).
You can buy with seeds and take free loadout Augments even with an overflowing Stash (1.17.0, Feb 24, 2026).
Changing Augments in your loadout arranges the excess in the Stash better since 1.13.0.
Compare value per slot before you sell, as KeenGamer suggests (Dec 12, 2025).

Update 2.0 also made weapon slot weight reduction apply only to the loadout, not other containers, and 2.2.0 removed the Expedition Vault tab.
