Battlestate Games, the developer of the renowned Escape From Tarkov shooter, has many unaccomplished plans. Recently, in a series of tweets, the developer revealed its focus on the game and where it’s supposed to be heading in the coming months. Basically said, a short and instructive roadmap for all of the Escape From Tarkov fans that would keep them on their feet and sustain the excitement. After a short break of no indicative status report, the developer has decided to proffer a glimpse of its current workload and its goals for the future.
The long-awaited Unity 2019 migration will also add DLSS support so that players can enjoy playing Escape From Tarkov with a higher PC performance. One of the memorable changes revealed today is the daily quest feature, which is planned to arrive with Patch 12.12.0. Battlestate Games hasn’t moved away, and it’s still committed to adding a VoIP feature, which will be first presented on the ETS client. In that way, the developer can pinpoint if any issues are present before it goes live.
Anti-Cheat Improvement
Now, the next piece is for all those who are frustrated from cheaters in Escape From Tarkov. The developer will add 3 new modules to its anti-cheat system to increase its detection and reaction time. Hence, ban hammers would probably activate a lot faster, preventing the fraudulent profiles from getting any significant in-game advantage.
Without further ado, you can find all of the revealed info below:
Here is a status report on what is going on and what are we focused on right now:
- Patch 12.11.5. Intermediate patch with fixes and optimizations

Hello, everybody!
It's been a long time without status reports and it is not meant that we do nothing. On the contrary, we are so immersed in colossal volumes of work that we do not have time to exhale.
