Only 2% of Brave Escape from Tarkov Players Will Reach the Ultimate Victory

Escape from Tarkov's Harsh Reality: Only 2% May Reach the Best Ending At Tokyo Game Show, Escape from Tarkov director Nikita Buyanov revealed that only a small fraction of players may achieve the game's most challenging and coveted ending. According to Buyanov, only about 2% of the player base is expected to reach this pinnacle, making it an "achievement of your life" to finally escape the war-torn city. Buyanov made these comments during a live QA session at Tokyo Game Show, where he also announced that there will be four endings in total, determined by completion and progression. The director emphasized that the best ending will be extremely difficult to obtain, saying it will be "really hard" and "not everyone will escape from Tarkov." The news comes as Escape from Tarkov is set for a 1.0 release on Steam in November, marking the end of its eight-year beta period. The game's developer has planned a significant amount of content for the next five years, with much still being kept under wraps. Buyanov's comments sparked excitement among fans and raised questions about what it takes to reach this elusive ending. "It will be something around two percent of all of the player base," Buyanov said, adding that players should treat achieving this goal as a badge of honor. Escape from Tarkov has built a dedicated community over its long beta period, with many players pouring countless hours into the game's survival mechanics and combat system. The game's realistic approach to first-person shooter gameplay has drawn comparisons to other popular titles in the genre. While only 2% may reach the best ending, Buyanov emphasized that the team is committed to providing a challenging experience for all players. "We want to make sure everyone has fun, but we also want to give those who are willing to put in the effort a chance to achieve something truly special," he said. As Escape from Tarkov prepares for its official release on Steam, fans and players alike will be eagerly watching to see if they have what it takes to join the exclusive group of players who reach the best ending. With its challenging gameplay and realistic approach, Escape from Tarkov is set to continue pushing the boundaries of the first-person shooter genre.
