Arc Raiders Industrial Espionage Quest Guide

Quests in Arc Raiders frequently send you topside with a mix of objectives, but if you’ve already completed tasks like Marked for Death and Market Correction for Tian Wen, you’ll know she has a habit of directing you toward hidden caches. That pattern continues with Industrial Espionage, a mission that asks you to deliver a specific weapon to a designated cache. If you’re having trouble figuring out where to go or what to do, don’t worry—this guide explains exactly how to complete the Industrial Espionage quest in Arc Raiders.

Where to take the Gun in the Industrial Espionage Quest

Important: When you accept Industrial Espionage from Tian Wen, she will give you a Burletta gun. You must bring this exact weapon with you into the Buried City in order to complete the quest. If you accidentally sell, recycle, or otherwise lose the Burletta, you’ll need to either craft a replacement at a Gunsmith Level 2 workbench or buy another one directly from Tian Wen before attempting the quest again.

Although having the Burletta in your inventory is mandatory for completing Industrial Espionage, extracting from the map afterward is not. Once the objective is done, the quest will count as completed even if you’re killed before extraction. Because of this, you can safely turn the quest in back at Speranza regardless of whether you make it out alive. With that in mind, feel free to deploy with a free loadout if you want to minimize risk during this run.

To finish Industrial Espionage, you’ll need to travel to the Gas Station point of interest located in the northern section of the Buried City. This area is usually fairly manageable, but depending on your spawn, you may need to pass close to locations like the Hospital or the Library. These zones can attract ARC units or other players, so moving carefully and relying on stealth can help you avoid unnecessary fights.

Once you reach the Gas Station and confirm that the Burletta is still in your inventory, head to the western side of the location. There, you’ll find a square container that serves as the weapon cache. When you approach it, an interaction prompt will appear reading “1/1 Burletta.” Interact with the container to place the Burletta inside, and this action will immediately complete the quest objective.

After completing the objective, it’s entirely up to you whether you want to continue looting the area or make your way toward extraction. The Northern Station extract is located a decent distance south of the Gas Station, so plan your route carefully. As always, stay alert for ARC patrols and other raiders who might be looking to ambush unsuspecting players. Play smart, stay quiet when you can, and good luck out there.
