All Escape from Tarkov Arena Maps

First Published August 25, 2023, 16:54

Battlestate Games has finally released abundant information regarding the upcoming Escape from Tarkov Arena, showcasing game modes, maps, and arena functionality. Due to the overt pressure placed on Battlestate Games by Escape from Tarkov fans, the developers have been forced into a position to release an absurd amount of content in minimal amounts of time. For those that don't know, during the early days of July and August Escape from Tarkov fans were taking to YouTube explaining their popular opinions on why Escape from Tarkov was failing. Fortunately, Battlestate Games took notice of fans' popular opinion.

Battlestate Games placed themselves in a testing position, making promises to fans to release further information on content on the roadmap and promising that the Arena is coming soon. Personally, I think Battlestate Games forcing accountability is great, there are no more "coming soon... maybe" releases and teaser trailers anymore, and we know that great content is dropping soon. This leads to today's topic, Escape from Tarkov Arena maps, and believe me, it's amazing what's coming. Battlestate Games is releasing four initial maps for Arena, however, there is information showing new maps that will be coming later.

Sawmill

Sawmill is an exciting map coming to Escape from Tarkov arena due to the fact players are being forced into the depths of the most hated map, Woods. Players will be forced to face their fears head-on, running through the brisk and unforgiving rural location with the ambition of being victorious. Fortunately, Sawmill won't feature our favorite scav boss, Shturman, meaning players can finally battle each other without the worry of hearing the deafening 7.62x54R rounds being fired at yourself and friends. However, Sawmill provides an interesting location due to the vegetation, players can take different approaches to combat and perhaps take things a little slower than compared to more traditional urban environments.

Battlestate Games have given Sawmill the following breakdown "An old private sawmill on the outskirts of Tarkov. Rumored to be a concealed backup TerraGroup Labs command post with an autonomous control system." Perhaps giving alternative aspects of the map we didn't expect, such as minefields and heavy-machine guns to protect certain locations. We know that TerraGroup was protective and great at hiding their experiments, leading to the possibilities of interactive environments and further additions to the map to enhance PVP.
