Jan 26,25

Escape from Tarkov's wipe, originally slated for pre-New Year's release due to a simplified Kappa container quest, now has a confirmed launch time. The update will begin December 26th at 7:00 AM GMT / 2:00 AM EST. Following maintenance, the game will update to version 0.16.0.0 (Tarkov Arena to 0.2.5.0).

Expect approximately 8 hours of downtime, though past updates have occasionally exceeded this. To compensate, Battlestate Games will host a New Year's Special Twitch stream at 4:00 PM GMT / 11:00 AM EST. Details remain undisclosed, but additional content is anticipated.

Version 0.16.0.0 confirms the full game release remains pending, likely into 2025. However, several significant features are expected:

Firstly, a long-awaited transition to the Unity 2022 engine is anticipated. While planned for 2024, implementation may have been delayed.

Secondly, a substantial overhaul of the weapon recoil system is expected, potentially significantly impacting gameplay.

New weaponry, including the RPG-26, is also rumored. The Customs map is slated for a rework, promising notable changes. Bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements are confirmed, although the engine upgrade might introduce unforeseen issues. The overall impact remains to be seen.
