17In order to perform the eponymous task in Escape from Tarkov, you’re going to need stuff. Guns, for example, guns are things. Bullets, too. Probably food, water, and a vintage collection of baseball broadcasts from radio shows of the 1950s. We’ve all got priorities. A new preview video shows off the process of gathering this stuff with the game’s inventory and looting system.
The game focuses heavily on having a semi-realistic setup for carrying items, taking damage, and exploring the mysterious city, so you can probably imagine that you don’t have limitless space to carry whatever. Similarly, space and size are considerations, as are the limitations of what you can see within a downed target’s backpack at any given moment. Check out the video down below to see just how you’ll scavenge to survive.
