Escape from Tarkov is an upcoming MMO combat simulator with RPG elements, promising a story-driven fighting experience, set in the fictional Norvinsk region on the frontier between Russia and Europe. The game is one of the most anticipated titles around because of all these reasons I’ve mentioned and one more thing. It looks stunning.
We are watching Escape from Tarkov closely and we’ve witness its progress from the very beginning. It seems like the final product will satisfy most of the community. Previously, we’ve shared the improved visuals, a gameplay footage, weapon customization demo footage and game engine details with you.
Escape from Tarkov is getting ready to enter the beta phase next month. Battlestate Games announced that the game will be entering official Closed Beta phase in July. If you are a current player and a pre-order owner, you can enjoy the closed beta test.
Closed beta will offer new features, optimizations and content for the players. A new map, new weapon parts, an insurance system, new loot and economy rebalancing will be waiting for you. Peacemaker, a new merchant will be added to the game in order to provide western weapons.
Here, see what is waiting for you in closed beta:
- Insurance – For a small amount of in game currency, players can insure weapons and equipment, increasing the chance of retaining it
- Loot and Economy – The CBT will feature a new Merchant, new barter loot, medicines and additional useful items for players to buy, sell and trade. Economic balancing means items will be made available in marketplaces for barter and in loot drops based on their popularity and rarity within the economics system Weapons – New weapon customization parts and ammunition types, along with the addition of the modern-classic MP5 submachine gun will offer players even more customizations in the game that prides itself on making thousands of weapon combos and upgrades possible

Escape from Tarkov offers too much and seems like developers are keeping their promise in order to bring us a great gaming experience. The game is now working with the current version of Unity Engine and it is fully using DX11 and other features of the engine.
