Expedition project

Last Updated: 2025-10-30

At level 20, you’ll unlock the Expedition Project - a feature that lets you choose when to reset your progression and start fresh on your own terms. Instead of a forced wipe, you decide when to begin a new journey. This gives you a clean slate while keeping certain rewards and long-term progress.

How It Works

Each Expedition cycle lasts eight weeks. During the first seven weeks, you’ll prepare your Expedition by gathering resources and completing the required steps. In the eighth week, the ability to finalize the project will become available and will remain available for that entire week.

If you don’t finish before the window closes, don’t worry. You can continue working on the project until the next finalization window.

What Resets and What Carries Over

When you send your Raider on an Expedition, most progression tied to your current character will reset.

What resetsWhat carries over
  • Level, skills, and XP

  • Inventory, stash items, and crafting progress

  • Cosmetics and purchased items

  • Raider Tokens and Cred

  • Raider Decks progress

  • Codex entries and unlocked maps

  • Expedition bonuses from previous run

Benefits and incentives

Completing an Expedition grants lasting account-wide benefits. These can include:

  • Unique cosmetic rewards for each completed Expedition
  • Account “buffs” applied for the duration of the following Expedition cycle
    • Sequential completions of the Expedition Project increase the magnitude of these buffs, up to a limit.
