“Escape From Tarkov” Twitch Drops Set to Return for Winter Wipe
Battlestate Games has officially announced the return of their popular Twitch Drops campaign for “Escape From Tarkov”, just in time to celebrate the upcoming winter wipe. The new campaign is set to kick off on December 30, 2024, and will run until January 8, 2025.
According to the official announcement, viewers will be able to earn in-game items by watching participating streamers on Twitch who are playing “Escape From Tarkov”. To participate, users must ensure they own a copy of the game and have linked their Tarkov and Twitch accounts. This can be done by visiting the Escape From Tarkov website and selecting the Twitch linking option.
The new Twitch Drops campaign is expected to bring some excitement to the community as it has been a fan-favorite feature in the past. To get started, users must tune into an “Escape From Tarkov” stream that has drops enabled. It’s essential to note that not all streams will have drops active at all times, so viewers should keep an eye out for announcements from their favorite streamers about when they are participating.
The timing of the Twitch Drops campaign suggests that the winter wipe is imminent, with most users anticipating a release date around December 26. This would allow for some bug testing before the campaign kicks off on the 30th.
Additionally, it’s been confirmed that there will be another Twitch Drops campaign for “Escape From Tarkov Arena”, which has recently concluded its free weekend. The new campaign is set to start on January 4 and run until January 8.
The potential rewards for participating in this campaign are substantial, with the possibility of obtaining rare items such as Bitcoin, graphics cards, and some of the new weapons being added in the upcoming 0.16 patch.
