Dates to Know

The tournament will start with the group stage, held from July 11, 2025, to July 13, 2025. Based on the results of the qualifiers, the six strongest teams will advance to the playoffs.

The Arena Cup Series 4 playoffs will be held from July 18 to July 20. Physical prizes from the tournament’s partners will be given away during the broadcasts. Additionally, viewers will be able to earn Twitch Drops, including an exclusive in-game customization option. To participate in Drops, viewers have to link their Twitch account to their game profile on the profile page.

Fun Additional Things to Expect from the Tournament

The new location Iceberg, introduced in Patch 0.3.1, will be used for the first time in a large international tournament and will be added to the location pool already available for professional competitions in Escape From Tarkov Arena. The location is covered extensively in a special video produced by Battlestate Games.

Additionally, a new in-game task line, specifically created for the tournament, will be announced during the broadcast and contain unique Escape From Tarkov Arena rewards.

Moreover, the developers have already used the tournament broadcasts as a platform for presenting new features and some details of the upcoming game changes, so perhaps this time they will show something as well.

What is Escape from Tarkov Arena?

Escape from Tarkov Arena combines the hardcore mechanics of Escape from Tarkov and the fast-paced gameplay of session matches, offering players a new perspective on the Tarkov universe.

The city of Tarkov is overrun with chaos. While corporations and private military companies wage their war in the streets, a mysterious group, the Masters of Arena, led by Ref, operate in the shadows. They have created clandestine fighting grounds where the best warriors battle for glory, money, and survival.

You are an Arena gladiator. Will you become the next legend?

Here are the expected features players can expect:

  • Tactical team matches and free-for-all gunfights
  • Realistic weapon and health mechanics
  • Variety of arenas with unique combat conditions
  • 200+ weapons and hundreds of attachments from Escape from Tarkov
  • Ranked game modes and Esports tournaments
