Don’t expect Tarkov Arena’s spectate mode to make it to Escape from Tarkov, says director

At Gamescom on Aug. 24., Dot Esports was fortunate enough to try Escape from Tarkov’s new Arena mode, and we had a blast with it. But one thing stood out more than most, as it included a highly requested fan feature that people have wanted for a while—spectator mode.

With it, you can watch your teammates from the moment you die or, in certain modes, even spectate those on the opposing teams to see their perspective and get a feel for how they play. It’s pretty amazing. The vast majority of Tarkov players at the play session lauded the feature and wanted it to come to the main game as well, but they, and you, shouldn’t get your hopes up.
