The feature list of Escape From Tarkov patch 0.15.5.0 includes many major quality-of-life improvements that players have been requesting for years.
This update would not have been considered a success without the roadmap published in September. BSG hoped to upgrade to Unity 2022 in patch 0.15.4.0, but that did not materialize.
Tarkov update 0.15.5.0 is here now, but the new engine is nowhere to be seen. According to the developers, the engine swap has moved to 0.16.0.0.
The developers first hoped to switch in May 2023, but the Unity runtime fee disaster put plans on hold.
The Halloween 0.15.5.0 Patch Notes Explained
Escape From Tarkov got its traditional Halloween patch today. If you can look past the Unity 2022 absence, this patch will make life much easier for those with busy stashes.
Matching Inventory Management
Players will finally be able to use their stash, questing menu, and the Flea Market while loading into a raid. This will make clearing up space ahead of the next outing quicker.
The system is currently limited to the server search part of matchmaking, but the hope is it will be expanded to the full process.
