Escape from Tarkov's wipe, originally slated for pre-New Year's, is now officially scheduled. The update, driven by a simplified Kappa container quest, will commence on December 26th at 7:00 AM GMT / 2:00 AM EST. Following approximately 8 hours of maintenance (though past updates have sometimes exceeded this), the game will launch version 0.16.0.0, with Tarkov Arena receiving update 0.2.5.0.
To offset downtime, Battlestate Games will host a New Year's Special Twitch stream at 4:00 PM GMT / 11:00 AM EST. Details remain under wraps, but players can anticipate exciting new content.
