Extracting in Escape From Tarkov Explained - How to Extract Guide

Extracting in Escape From Tarkov involves moving to an exit location on any map and escaping alive. However, anyone who’s attempted this knows it isn’t that simple. You have to know where the extraction point is and survive long enough to get there. All these issues combined make extracting something of an art. The first step is to spawn on a map and get to know it.

Learning maps take a while because maps in Escape From Tarkov are absolutely enormous. Some extracts even havehidden requirementsor don’t always appear at certain times. You can learn these requirements as you play and use tools such asMap Genieto help you learn the map. In my experience, using Map Genie and running around withbare-bones equipmenthelped me learn maps, such as Customs. Eventually, as I spawned sometimes with no gear, I figured out where good loot was and where most extracts are.
