What is the Start Date of Escape from Tarkov’s New Year Twitch Drop Event?

Escape from Tarkov New Year Event: Free Drops for Twitch Viewers

Battlestate, the developer of Escape from Tarkov, is starting off the New Year by offering in-game drops to players who watch Twitch streams.

Viewers of any Escape from Tarkov stream on Twitch will have the chance to receive a variety of in-game items, including weapons, gear, and rare goodies. The drops will be given out at intervals determined by Battlestate.

Any Twitch channel streaming in the Escape from Tarkov category, and owned by a player who has the game, can participate in the event and help other players get drops.

On specific days during the event, drops will only be available on select streamers’ channels.

Escape from Tarkov’s New Year event will start on Tuesday, December 28, and run until January 8. This gives players 12 days to earn in-game perks just by keeping an EFT stream open on their computer.

To participate in the event, players must own the game and connect their Twitch account to their Escape from Tarkov profile.
