Escape from Tarkov Wipe Unveils Festive Surprises

Escape from Tarkov's wipe, originally planned for before the New Year to coincide with a simplified Kappa container quest, now has a confirmed release time. The update will begin December 26th at 7:00 AM GMT / 2:00 AM EST. Following maintenance (estimated 8 hours, potentially longer), the game will update to version 0.16.0.0 (Tarkov Arena to 0.2.5.0).

To compensate for downtime, Battlestate Games will host a New Year's Special Twitch stream at 4:00 PM GMT / 11:00 AM EST. Details remain undisclosed, but players can anticipate additional content.

What's new in update 0.16.0.0?

Version 0.16.0.0 confirms the full game release remains pending, likely until 2025. However, several significant changes are anticipated:

Firstly, a long-awaited migration to the Unity 2022 engine is expected. While slated for 2024, implementation may have been delayed.

Secondly, a complete overhaul of the weapon recoil system is anticipated. This is a major change with significant gameplay implications.

New weaponry, including the RPG-26, is also expected. The Customs map will receive a rework, promising notable alterations. Bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements are confirmed, although the engine upgrade could introduce unforeseen issues.
