As the Fire Sale event rages on, signaling the imminent wipe, players of Escape From Tarkov brace for the arrival of a new formidable force, Kollontay. With the wipe slated for tomorrow, the anticipation within the community reaches a fever pitch.
Kollontay is the brother of Kaban and a harbinger of the fresh start that comes with the wipe. As seasoned players know, a wipe in Escape From Tarkov means a complete reset, gear, progress, and all the hard-earned loot vanish, leveling the playing field.
The developers have timed Kollontay’s introduction perfectly. With the Fire Sale event allowing players to experience the game with less financial restraint, the playing field is rife with high-octane action, a fitting prelude to the new era that Kollontay represents. His heavy armor and advanced weaponry signify that he will be a central figure in the Streets of Tarkov map.
