Escape From Tarkov is becoming a paid indie PvP game that focuses entirely on moment-by-moment gameplay, preceded by battle royale mechanics.
Kodoani.com – Battlestate Games talked about taking the next big step in continuing to develop its flagship title, Escape From Tarkov, quite a while ago. This big step has finally been made with the announcement of a standalone version of the game that will focus specifically on combat.

There is a lot of information already available about the game and one of the most important is its pricing model.

To that end, while Tarkov is able to appeal to a larger audience than ever before with this new indie multiplayer experience, fighting against EFT players can be troubling. them at first.
Now that Call of Duty is said to have added a DMZ mode, and Tarkov is getting what looks like a COD-style multiplayer mode, the coming months and years will be especially exciting for PvP gamers. BSG is expected to release more details about EFT: Arena in the near future and the specific price of the game is unknown, although it will likely be cheaper than the base game by $44.99.
Escape From Tarkov is now available on PC, with standalone Arena due to close its beta in Fall 2022.
