Damage is location-specific, so wounds to the leg will slow you down and getting hit in the arm will impact your aim. The developers pride themselves on the game’s ballistics, modeling things like ricochets and bullet penetration. At its core, the game is a hardcore tactical first-person shooter.

In the final week of 2019, a nearly 3-year-old video game called Escape From Tarkov rocketed to the top of Twitch.
