Escape from Tarkov Arena is a new game part of the Escape from Tarkov world. It’s a game where players fight against each other (PVP) and also against computer-controlled enemies (PVE). It’s like a shooting game set in an arena.
The main game was about completing objectives; if you died, it was bad for your progress. But in Arena, dying doesn’t affect your progress like that. In EFT Arena, players compete against each other in different game modes like Teamfight. In Teamfight, two teams of players face off and gather points to win.
Unlike the regular EFT game, Arena is easier and great for players who want a more relaxed Escape from Tarkov experience. Even though the game is not fully finished, you can order it before it’s officially released.
In this article, we’ll be giving you more information about when the game will come out, how much it will cost, what advantages you get from preordering, and other important details.
Escape From Tarkov Arena Release Date
Escape From Tarkov Arena does not have a confirmed release date yet. But people who like the game can guess it might be out in early 2024. Until that happens, they can only play if they’re part of the closed beta access program.
If players order the game early, they can join a special early version called a closed beta. Players can try different ways to play the game in this beta, like Teamfight, Shootout, Overrun, and Last Hero.
These are different games inside the main game. And because many different maps work with these modes, there are many ways to play the game and have fun.

Escape From Tarkov Arena Trailers
Until now, there have been three trailers about the Escape From Tarkov Arena game.
The first trailer came out in June 2022. It showed us how the competitive shooting game works. In the video, two teams of five players each fight against each other on two different maps: Equator and Air Pit. They show how players can heal themselves, move with momentum, and shoot from behind cover.
In April 2023, they put out another video about the game. This time, it showed how to play in Sawmill and Bay 5. The video also revealed the starting options in the game for four types of players.
The third trailer shows a sneak peek of a tournament that Battlestate is organizing. In the tournament, teams are fighting against each other. They play on maps like Air Pit, Bay 5, Equator, and Sawmill.

Escape From Tarkov Arena Modes
There are five different ways to play Escape From Tarkov Arena:
1️⃣ Teamfight: Teamfight seems to be a game mode where two teams of five players each fight against each other, like a team-based shootout. You can play this mode on any of the maps.
2️⃣ Shootout Tournament: A Shootout Tournament is a game where everyone can compete freely. You can play it with one person against another or teams of two or three people on maps like Equator, Air Pit, Bowl, and Bay 5. This information comes from the second video showing the game.
3️⃣ Overrun: Overrun is a game mode where you and four friends work together to fight against groups of enemies. You must survive attacks from these enemies and complete a task before safely leaving the area.
4️⃣ Last Hero: In Last Hero, players aim to defeat each other and earn points by getting as many kills as possible before the time runs out. It’s like a battle where everyone fights independently to see who can defeat the most opponents.
5️⃣ Duel: We don’t know exactly what the Duel is like yet. But we think it’s probably a way for players to have one-on-one battles to solve problems like they used to do in the past.
Escape From Tarkov Arena Battles
There are two main kinds of battles in the Arena: ranked and unranked. Unranked fights are for learning how the Arena works, practicing, or just having fun anywhere and with any level of opponents. Ranked mode is a serious competition to decide who’s the best fighter in the Arena.
