Escape from Tarkov is getting a classic drum-fed submachine gun
There are few games out there that take their guns as seriously as Escape from Tarkov does, which makes the announcement of a new firearm a big deal for Tarkov players. Battlestate Games has teased a new weapon in 1development for Tarkov, and it's the PPSh-41, a Soviet submachine gun that saw extensive service in World War II and the Korean War.
In a tweet Friday, Battlestate games shared a clip of the untextured model, along with a reload animation. It shows the player's hands readying the PPSh-41, then removing and replacing the 71-round drum magazine and pulling back the bolt. Finally, the player inspects the weapon.
The PPSh-41 - or 'Shpagin machine pistol' - is a natural fit for Tarkov, both thematically and mechanically. It was produced and used through the 1940s to 1960s in the USSR, and is still used by several countries and militias today. It fires the powerful 7.62×25mm Tokarev round, which is commonly found in Tarkov already as ammunition for the TT pistol. It has a wooden stock and a stamped-steel body, and uses an open bolt, blowback action.
