FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Escape from tarkov review | History Defined

A player lines up a headshot in Escape from Tarkov.

Every time I make a kill in Escape from Tarkov, it's over in a flash. This is not down to skill. Sometimes in Tarkov you'll be sitting there minding your own business when two players blithely walk by, no idea you're there, and even with a pop gun it will be the easiest double kill you'll ever score. Death is almost always instantaneous in Tarkov, and it's everywhere.

Need to know
