Nikita Buyanov, the man behind the madness, just dropped a teaser on X, revealing a potential surprise once the new trader settles in the game. Let me break it down for you if you haven’t seen it yet.
So, Nikita tweeted an image of a new container that you can snag from a brand-new merchant in the game. The tweet is as cryptic as ever, just like Tarkov itself. It said: “New container you will be able to obtain from the new merchant – Ref. #EscapefromTarkov #EFTarena.”
The container, branded with “THETA,” looks like it means business. It’s rugged, tactical, and has that classic EFT vibe that makes you feel like you’re about to go on a black-ops mission. This container may be bigger than some of the already existing ones, and include some unique features or bonuses which could make it a primary purchase. Imagine it being bigger than the Gamma or even close to the Kappa container?
The container was first revealed on X by Nikita. It’s quite likely seeing this new trader arriving with the release of 1.0, which technically was promised and should happen at the start of 2025.
