A player has reported an apparent memory problem in Escape from Tarkov: Arena, with a screenshot showing the game process using more than 56GB of RAM. The post came from Reddit user /u/TheUniporn and presents the issue as a possible memory leak.
The Windows Task Manager image shows EscapeFromTarkovArena.exe using 56,537.1 MB of memory. At the same time, the system panel displays 85% total memory usage and 3.1% CPU usage for the process. The post does not provide details about how long Arena had been running, the computer’s total RAM, or whether the problem can be reproduced consistently.
That makes this a player-observed issue rather than confirmation of a widespread bug. A single screenshot can show unusually high memory use, but it cannot establish the cause or prove that a leak is responsible. Battlestate Games has not been cited in the post as confirming the problem or announcing a fix.
The screenshot and the original claim are available in the Reddit post by /u/TheUniporn.
