The game has been in closed beta for a while, but I returned to it this past weekend for the first time in a year to find a stable and satisfying experience. The fiction of the game pits two teams of military contractors against each other in a remote Russian village.
I’ve been following Escape From Tarkov ( EFT) since I first heard about it in 2016. It features utterly brutal gameplay and an in-game economy to match. The Windows PC game is an ultra-hardcore, military simulation-grade first-person shooter. It’s called Escape From Tarkov, and it’s only available directly from the Russia-based developers at Battlestate Games. The survival shooter genre has dominated Steam for a few years now, but one of the most interesting new titles isn’t being sold there.
