As you may already know, regular Escape from Tarkov players, the game by Battlestate Games received a new patch a few days ago that brought some interesting fixes, but that wasn’t the only thing that arrived in the game. In addition to those improvements and solutions to certain issues that a title like this usually faces, Escape from Tarkov received the first elements of its highly anticipated Halloween event, one that is now much more complete and ready to be enjoyed today, during the night of the mentioned holiday.
As we mentioned, Escape from Tarkov’s Halloween event arrived a few days ago alongside the new patch for the game, which was released on October 26th. However, yesterday, the game developers added more elements to celebrate Halloween with their players in the best way possible. Among other things, the maps in the game now feature decorations in line with the date we are on today, October 31st. In other words, it’s easy to recognize that we are in the midst of the Halloween event within the game.
Halloween comes to Escape from Tarkov
With the initial arrival of the patch, players started to notice how loot containers changed their appearance to that of a pumpkin, something that some enemies also began to use as helmets in the game. Now, Escape from Tarkov has also made the boss Zyrachiy appear in all maps with a 100% spawn rate. In addition, rituals can now be found in entirely random locations when the boss is defeated, and a poisonous green flare has been added to the scav loot, the game’s enemies.
Obviously, this hasn’t been the only thing added, as Tagilla, one of the bosses in the game, has also been equipped with a scythe and appears on maps like Factory and The Lab. Beyond what’s been mentioned, there are other additions, such as the event that occurs when the game’s rituals are successful, as this generates an invincible Zyrachiy and permanently locks the weapons. There are quite a few additions in this new Halloween event for the mentioned game, and we don’t know how long they will remain in the game. In other words, at the moment, we don’t know when the mentioned thematic event will end.
To finish, and as we mentioned earlier, the patch recently received by Escape from Tarkov, in addition to the already mentioned Halloween event, also added several fixes to the title and other improvements aimed at enhancing the enemy AI.
