The latest Escape From Tarkov wipe has just been deployed, along with the game’s new 0.12.12.30 update patch, which means there could be an influx of new players in EFT for the first time in over 6 months.

If you’ve been playing Tarkov for some time you likely know about the game’s maps, including its many quests, spawn points, and possible extraction locations. But if you’re new to the game, you might be in need of some help to navigate each location for the first time.

That’s understandable, what with AI Scavs taking pot shots at you and fellow PMC players looking to take you down, you’re going to need to keep your wits about you. On this page, we’re starting simply with the list of maps available to you in the game, along with a few more cursory details such as how long each map Raid will last and how many players you can expect to be matched with. Oh and finally what enemy types you can expect on each map.

But if you click through to the links further down you’ll also find more detailed info on each map, including specifics such as extraction points, key locations, and where you’ll find each boss.

EFT Maps Sniper Roadblocks & Minefields

In order to stop players from going where they shouldn’t Battlestate Games has included Minefields and Sniper Roadblocks to keep players within the confines of the map.

If you attempt to leave maps via any route that isn’t a normal extraction point, you’ll most likely run into a minefield (On Woods & Lighthouse) or Sniper Roadblocks (On Customs, Lighthouse, Reserve and Woods).

In both cases these areas will be clearly marked in the game, normally with a big WARNING sign, but trust us you want to make sure you head back from where you came rather than continuing.

All maps in Escape From Tarkov

Below is a list of all known maps in Escape From Tarkov, including official details of some maps which have not yet been released in the game.

Map	Description	Raid Duration	Players	Enemy types	Release state
Customs	A large area of industrial park land situated adjacent to the factory zone. The area houses a customs terminal, fuel storage facilities, offices, and dorms, as well as a variety of other infrastructure and buildings.	35 minutes	9-12	Scavs + Cultists + Reshala	Yes
Factory	The industrial estate and facilities of Chemical Plant No. 16 were rented out illegally to the TerraGroup corporation. During the advent of the Contract Wars, the plant became the scene of numerous firefights between BEAR and USEC that ultimately determined control over the industrial district of Tarkov. Later on, in the wake of the chaos, the plant facilities became a shelter for the remaining civilians, Scavs, and military operatives, including the scattered remains of the BEAR and USEC contingents.	Day: 20 minutesNight: 25 minutes	4-6	Day: Scavs + Tagilla   Night: Scavs + Cultists + Tagilla	Yes
Interchange	The South Interchange is a key transport location for the city. This strategic area connects the port and harbor with the industrial outskirts of Tarkov. Located in the center of the interchange is a huge ULTRA shopping mall which was used as the main base of operation for the EMERCOM evacuation.	45 minutes	10-14	Scavs + Killa	Yes
Lighthouse	The lighthouse at Cape Dalniy was an important strategic object on the way to Tarkov. During Contract Wars, it was the main entry point for USEC units and served as their base of operations. After the conflict, Scavs took a fancy to this place, until the old owners returned, who decided to stay in Tarkov and establish their own order.	40 minutes	9-12	Scavs + Rogues	Yes
Reserve	The secret Federal State Reserve Agency base that, according to urban legends, contains enough supplies to last for years: food, medications, and other resources, enough to survive an all-out nuclear war.	40 minutes	9-12	Scavs + Scav Raiders + Glukhar	Yes
Shoreline	The Shoreline area makes up a large part of the outskirts of Tarkov and is located next to the Port. The area houses a partially abandoned village, modern private housing, agricultural fields, long stretches of beach, a boating facility, gas station, weather station, and a cellular tower as well as other commercial facilities. Shoreline’s main point of interest is the “Azure Coast” health resort which consists of several luxurious buildings and facilities. The resort is exclusively powered by a nearby hydroelectric power plant. The resort had previously been used as temporary accommodation for members of TerraGroup and the corporation’s associated divisions in preparation for the evacuation of the Tarkov Port.	50 minutes	10-13	Scavs + Cultists + Sanitar	Yes
The Lab	Secret underground TerraGroup Labs facility hidden right under the center of Tarkov.
