Escape From Tarkov has received a new update today, although this one is somewhat minor compared to others. The update mainly consists of bug fixes and a couple optimization changes for increased performance, but doesn’t bring any new major or minor features to the table this time around.
Optimization changes were made to Escape From Tarkov in an attempt to counter the occasional light freezing and stuttering that players had been encountering recently, and it seems that those problems have been addressed. Various bugs were addressed as well, although the majority of these were visual or aesthetic problems that didn’t really affect gameplay.
In order to implement version 0.12.4.6617 of Escape From Tarkov, developer Battlestate Games had the servers down for scheduled maintenance. Now that the servers are finally back online, this update should be rolled out to all PC platforms the game currently supports.
Though this update was indeed a minor one, Battlestate Games has been steadily updating Escape From Tarkov, so something new may come soon. Complete patch notes for the new update can be found below, so reference them for additional details and specifics.
