The Arise Crossover Winter Raid, also called the Santa raid, is a timed boss event in the Roblox shadow-army game by CL GAMES!. This page covers its schedule, the three bosses, the Snow Bear bonus and the new Halloween raid. The raid details come from a guide first written around April 2025, and a Winter 2026 version has not been confirmed.
Arise Crossover Winter Raid schedule and bosses
One 2025 guide says the raid starts at XX:10 and XX:40 of each hour and lasts 15 minutes. That is two raids an hour, so you never wait long for the next one. The Winter Raid features three bosses.
| Boss | Notes |
|---|---|
| Metal | One of the three raid bosses |
| Laruda | One of the three raid bosses |
| Snow Monarch | Third named boss in the guide |
The same guide says the raid resembles the earlier Dedu Island raid. Bring a strong shadow team, since the fight runs on a timer. Check the Arise Crossover damage list for how damage is built, and the Arise Crossover shadow rank list to see how to raise your shadows.
Arise Crossover Santa raid bonus: the Snow Bear
A bonus boss, the Wild Bear, can appear during the raid. Defeating it gives the Snow Bear mount, according to the guide. No spawn chance has been published, so we do not give one. The Snow Bear is the only bonus the Winter Raid guide names, and it is the reason many players come back for repeat runs of the Santa event.
Winter Raid rewards
Rewards are the least documented part of the Arise Crossover Winter Raid, so this section stays short on purpose.
The data we have states only the Snow Bear mount. Our shadow data also lists Snow Monarch, Metal, Laruda and a Snow shadow with the Winter Raid as their location, so the raid is a source of shadows. Drop rates and other loot are not published. The Arise Crossover shadows hub holds the shadows we track, and the Arise Crossover tier list shows where players rank them, with conflicts noted. Winter code families have expired; see the Arise Crossover codes page for what works now.
Arise Crossover Halloween raid: Trick or Treat Gate
The October 2026 Halloween update added the Trick or Treat Gate raid and a Halloween Night event that runs every 2 hours, per the Roblox game page. The developer has not published the mechanics, bosses or drops of either, and we will add them when a source confirms them. Last year's Halloween content included the Ancient Hospital raid and Cemetery Rush, which are separate from this year's event. More about the update is on the Arise Crossover update page.
Is there a Winter 2026 event?
It is unknown, and no official Winter Raid date for 2026 has been published. The update says a new part will arrive weekly until Christmas, but no winter event has been announced. Join the community through the Arise Crossover Discord page for news, and read the Arise Crossover beginner guide if you are new. The Arise Crossover map shows the islands you will need to clear first.
The raid drops gear and shadows that tie into other pages: the Arise Crossover relics page covers Frostbound Core and Crown of Snow, the Arise Crossover dungeons page covers the other timed content, and the Arise Crossover Halloween event page covers the current update.
