Escape From Tarkov's studio head has confirmed that after eight years of early access, the game is finally coming to Steam.
It's wild to think about, but Escape From Tarkov – which launched into early access two days after Fortnite came out (and having been playable in closed alpha for around a year before that) – is actually getting a full release later this year on November 15. The tactical FPS effectively pioneered the extraction shooter genre and it isn't even out yet, starting development back in 2012 (the same year Star Citizen was announced). Since it was originally released, Escape from Tarkov has been exclusive to its own launcher, however, that won't be the case for long as a Steam release is imminent.
