Battlestate has confirmed that Escape from Tarkov will officially launch Version 1.0 on November 15, 2025, marking the end of its extended early access phase.

The reveal occurred through a cinematic live-action clip published on YouTube, where the date initially flashes on a fallen operative’s wristwatch before appearing definitively across a terminal display during the trailer’s conclusion.

Leading up to the release, attendees at select regional expos—including PAX, Tokyo Game Show, Paris Games Week, and G-Star in Busan—will gain hands-on access to the finalized build. The Busan showcase coincides directly with the game’s global launch.

By its 1.0 debut, the title will have endured nearly a decade in early access. While specifics about the final version’s features remain sparse, Battlestate plans to preview gameplay adjustments during its roadshow events. This follows the recent deployment of Patch 0.16.9.0, which introduced weapon balancing, bug fixes, and gameplay refinements.
