⚡️ Battlestate Games has opened the test servers for Escape from Tarkov, the build is now OPEN to everyone (including Steam) and the NDA has been lifted.
The move to Unity 6 is the big change: testers get an immersive aiming system and revamped data-storage logic. Devs are actively collecting feedback and have already started tweaking shooting mechanics based on early reports 👀
🚀 From Escape from Tarkov to the stars: Nikita Buyanov has unmasked Fragmentary Order, a brutal HARDCORE sci‑fi shooter from new studio Rant Gaming (~130 devs), while the main Battlestate crew (400+) stays on Tarkov.
Buyanov insists it's a combat simulator, not just an extraction game: evacuation bits exist, but the focus is on tactics and survival against drones, clones and other humans. Built on Unreal Engine with DLSS 5...

⚡️Patch 1.0.4.5 for Escape from Tarkov, performance tweaks and PvE quest‑progress protection.
If the game crashes during a local PvE raid, quest progress no longer disappears: it rolls back to the state at raid start. Reworked geometry on Streets of Tarkov, added player culling on Lighthouse, Shore, Woods and Epicenter, improved animations and the audio engine, sped up post‑raid processing and added a manual FPS cap. The patch also ad...
Tarkov phenomenon: Escape from Tarkov is outlasting the new extraction shooters, Marathon dumped 72% of players in a month, an Embark Studios project bled over 81% from its peak.
Tarkov, which hit Steam in November 2025, dropped only 65%: Battlestate keeps its core with events and DLC prep, while rivals choke on a content drought and backlash over punishing difficulty. The FATHER of the genre still calls the shots. 💥

⚡️Nikita Buyanov, head of Battlestate Games, confirmed he's a driving force behind sci‑fi shooter Fragmentary Order (aka Frago) and founded the new international studio Rant Gaming. Fans already nicknamed it "Starkov": a sci‑fi shooter with a hardcore vibe, but not a classic extraction shooter.
Buyanov personally shut down the worry about leaving, he's not abandoning Escape from Tarkov and will work on Tarkov in parallel: separ...

Fragmentary Order, a HARDCORE sci‑fi shooter from the creators of Tarkov ⚡
Set in 2251, war is a strict hierarchical system where you won't just shoot, you have to carve out your place in that order. Expect deep progression, resource management, faction interactions, brutal ballistics and advanced damage modelling. Realism-first design means a steep learning curve and mandatory tactical play.

Battlestate Games' Q1 2026 report: between Jan, Mar they banned 25,000 accounts in Escape from Tarkov, but only 54% were for CHEATERS, the other 46% were punished for RMT, botting and banned scripts ⚠️
Bans now run daily; false positives still occur, though detection accuracy has improved. BSG says it won't pursue cheat authors in court, legal action is too slow and costly. Planned measures: kernel protection (TPM 2.0, Secure Boo...
