Kord Breach is here. It’s the next chapter of Escape From Tarkov, and takes you all nicely through the mid-year period. There have been wholesale changes to countless quests, thanks to the raft of improvements in the 1.1.1.0 patch notes, and new incomings, thanks to the Summer 2026 Twitch Drops.

Items have been split into two different categories: Global Drops, where you can earn in-game reward containers, and Twitch Subscription Drops, offering permanent unlocks.
