Escape from Tarkov has become one of the most popular military simulation titles in the last few years, championed for its realism mixed with the high-risk-high-reward style of gameplay.

Fans were incredibly excited to hear that the game was expanding with the announcement of Streets of Tarkov, a new story location in the game. Yet, the release date still remains elusive, and there has been little said about the new update.

To keep building the anticipation, Battlestate took to Twitter and Instagram to share concept pictures of some new weapon designs.

How do I get these weapons?

While the pictures are certainly thought-provoking, their captions leave a lot to be desired. With the only writing being “#EscapeFromTarkov”, Battlestate are keeping the release date and the information surrounding these weapons close to their chest.

So who knows, maybe the release of these new weapons heralds Streets of Tarkov coming soon, but only time will tell. So grit your teeth and get excited, something big is coming.
