After more than a decade in development and eight years in beta, Escape From Tarkov is finally getting its full release. Battlestate Games has officially announced that Escape From Tarkov Version 1.0 will launch on November 15, 2025, marking a significant milestone in the history of one of the most hardcore and influential survival shooters in PC gaming.

A Long Road From Alpha to 1.0

Originally announced in 2012, Escape From Tarkov entered closed alpha in 2016 and moved into extended beta in 2017. Over the years, the game has cultivated a loyal player base thanks to its brutal realism, tactical gameplay, and a unique blend of extraction shooter mechanics. Despite the lack of a full release, the game’s popularity surged through Twitch streams and regular content updates.

Now, more than 13 years after development began, Escape From Tarkov is finally preparing to shed its beta label.

What to Expect in Escape From Tarkov 1.0

While Battlestate Games hasn’t released full patch notes or feature lists yet, past developer statements and roadmap teases give us a strong idea of what Tarkov 1.0 will bring. A key highlight will be the introduction of a dedicated storyline, which finally gives players the opportunity to “escape from Tarkov” in a narrative-driven fashion.

"Escaping will then see your character reset, starting things fresh."

This mechanic could offer a major shift in gameplay, as completing the story may result in wiping your progress and encouraging repeat playthroughs.

Additionally, new factions, clan systems, and expansive updates to game mechanics, maps, and weapons are expected as part of the 1.0 update. The game’s notorious learning curve and punishing gunplay are also likely to be fine-tuned as the developers finalize their long-term vision.
