RELATED: How to Get the Escape from Tarkov Gamma ContainerĪccording to an interview from 2016, Buyanov has said Escape from Tarkov will be 'a traditional, full-purchase,' so players won't have to worry about any new content, equipment, or updates being hidden behind a paywall.

Even though the game is now a few years into it's closed beta, Escape from Tarkov has experienced a rise in popularity recently due to some popular streamers on Twitch showing off their crazy John Wick-like skills.
