Is Escape from Tarkov: Arena free? EFT can be quite a daunting prospect for the uninitiated; in theory, it’s a case of infiltrating into an area, looting, killing, and exfiltrating safely. There are AI enemies as well as human players whose objective is seemingly just to ruin your day. It’s a slow-paced affair, and can either be incredibly rewarding, or exceedingly frustrating.
Escape from Tarkov: Arena aims to take that tactical, very deliberate gameplay, and place it into a squad-based arena co-op game. Escape from Tarkov doesn’t appear on any major digital storefront, instead operating solely from its website, but will Escape from Tarkov Arena do the same?
