In Escape from Tarkov, there was recently an event that was considered particularly tough. But if you managed to escape alive, you brought back tons of loot.
What was the event like? In the extraction shooter Escape from Tarkov, you could enter the map “Labyrinth” in an event over the past weeks and grab a lot of loot there.
The Labyrinth is a type of dungeon that you could enter from the “Shoreline” map. To do this, you had to complete a series of quests to be able to buy a keycard and also obtain a key that grants you access to the dungeon.
Inside the dungeon, you could then scavenge for further quest items and secure event achievements. Completing the event quests would take you to various locations like the Corpse room or the Assembly room, where a bomb is located.
In these rooms, there was plenty of really good loot to be found, but to retrieve it, you had to survive various dangers and successfully escape the Labyrinth.
65% of players fail to achieve the event achievement
How successful were the players in the event? BattleState Games, the developers of Escape from Tarkov, announced in a post on X after the event that only 35% of players received the event achievement. The remaining 65% left empty-handed.
Overall, the event or surviving on the map was considered very tough. Over 3,000,000 player characters are said to have died in the Labyrinth.
What made the map so difficult? In the Labyrinth, you spawned in a kind of escape room where you had to solve a few puzzles to leave. Once you succeeded, you were met with a ton of traps, Scavs, and 2 dangerous boss enemies: Tagilla and Killa.
Both bosses, of course, were heavily armored and well-armed. If you managed to defeat Tagilla, Killa would sprint to his comrade’s corpse and attack you as soon as you won the first fight.
As if the two villains weren’t dangerous enough, there were four other players in the Labyrinth competing for the same objectives – or hiding in corners and shooting you in the back.
By the way, the Labyrinth is also said to be playable in Escape from Tarkov after the end of the event. This and other interesting information were recently announced by the developers of the shooter. Additionally, we learned a rough timeframe for when Escape from Tarkov is expected to finally have its 1.0 release after 9 years in early access: “1.0 Release?
