    With the sheer size and scale of the maps in Battlestate Games’ multiplayer first-person shooter Escape from Tarkov, it can be quite easy to find yourself lost and missing in action, especially if you’re a new player.

    For this reason, keeping some sort of 3rd party map alongside you becomes essential. It is precisely for this reason that we’ve constructed this handy-dandy guide highlighting all of the maps released for Escape From Tarkov thus far, and providing you with tips for traversing them.

    1. Customs Map

    Customs is the second map that was released for the game and is regarded as one of the easiest outdoor locations to navigate. Its usual raid time limit is 25 minutes with a 9-12 PMC limit. If you were bolting through the map in a straight line it should take you 6-8 minutes to go from one end to the other. 

    Landmarks for orientation

    1. Customs – Which is also lovingly called the “Big red building” 
    2. The Factory
    3. Substation
    4. The Dorms

    Primary Extraction Locations

    1. Crossroads
    2. ZB-1011
    3. Smuggler’s boat
    4. Dorm’s Vehicle Exit (Requires 5000 RUB per player and a maximum exit for 4 players)

    Where to find the Boss

    You can find Reshala either inside of “the Dorms”, the new “Gas Station” or in what is known as the “Scav Stronghold.” 

    Read more about the Customs Map here.

    2. Interchange Map

    The Interchange was the fifth location released for the game. It has a raid time limit of just 45 minutes with a PMC limit of 10 to 14.

    The best tip for traversing through Interchange would be that if you ever get lost, you can just follow along the edges of the map to get you to an extraction location. 

    Landmarks for Orientation 

    There are also three anchor stores next to the mall. These include “IDEA,” “OLI,” and “Goshan.” Some other important landmarks include the following: 

    1. The North Sign
    2. The South Sign
    3. Emercom Powerstation 
    4. Second Powerstation
    5. Railway Exist 

    Primary Extraction Locations

    1. Emercom Checkpoint
    2. Railway Exist

    Where to find the Boss?

    The Boss of this map is called Killa and can be found spawned in either the “IDEA” store, “OLI” store, “Goshan” store, or might even be found in the center of the mall.

    Read more about the Interchange map here.

    3. Factory Map

    factory escape from tarkov

    The Factory map is a much smaller map in comparison to the others. The Day time limit for this raid is 20 minutes and a Nighttime limit of 25 minutes. Only about 5-6 PMCs can spawn into this map at any given point in time.

    This is one of the best maps for anyone who enjoys the Player versus Player element of Escape from Tarkov. One navigational tip would be that the Forklift is perhaps the most dangerous spawn point on this map. 

    Landmarks for Orientation

    1. Blue Barrel Spawn location
    2. Glass Hallway 
    3. Tin Can
    4. Helicopter 

    Primary Extraction Locations

    1. Gate 0 Extraction 
    2. Gate 3 Extraction
    3. Med Tent Extraction 
    4. Cellars Extraction 

    Where to find the Boss? 

    factory boss location

    The boss of this map known as the Tagilla should be expected to pop up at any location within the map limit because due to the map size there is no particular location for its spawn.

    Read more about the Factory map here.

    4. Woods Map

    woods boss location

    The woods was the third location to be added to the game. It has a raid time limit of 40 minutes and a PMC limit of 9 to 14 players.

    One tip to navigate this map is that if you were standing on the docks of the logging camp looking out towards the lake that would be considered North.

    The map thus is spliced into two spawn area zones, one on the West and the other on the East with an equivalent distance from the Log camp area. 

    Landmarks for Orientation 

    1. The UN roadblock 
    2. RUAF Gate
    3. Rubble Field
    4. Sniper Overlook Rock 
    5. Log Camp 
    6. Beach Rock
    7. Deadman 
    8. Outskirts 
    9. Scav House
    10. Bunker Rocks
    11. Checkpoint
    12. South Vehicle Exist
    13. Sniper Scav 
    14. Spine Rock
    15. Plane Crash
    16. IED
    17. Old Station 

    Primary Extraction Location 

    1. RUAF Gate
    2. ZB-016 Bunker
    3. UN roadblock 
    4. Old Station 
    5. West Border 

    Where to Find the Boss?

    The Boss of this map is called Shturman and can be found in the Sawmill. 

    Read more about the Woods map here.

    5. Reserve Map

    reserve escape from tarkov

    The Reserve map is arguably one of the most challenging maps of Escape From Tarkov. It has a 40 minute raid time limit and has a PMC limit of 9 to 12.

    Reserve is challenging because you might be deceived early on as you roam the outskirts regarding its relative ease, but as you venture further and further inside it shows just how gripping and challenging the map can be for players that aren’t prepared. 

    Landmarks for Orientation 

    Find the Radar Site which would be South, allowing players to orient accordingly. 

    Primary Extraction Location

    1. Cliff Descent 
    2. Hermetic Door
    3. Manhole
    4. Armoured Train
    5. Scav Lands Exist
    6. CP Fence
    7. Depot Hermetic Door 
    8. Heating Pipe
    9. Hole in the Fence by the mountainside 

    Where to find the Boss?

    The boss of this map is called Glukhar and can be found inside or surrounding the buildings with a “K” on them or the ones with a “Bishop.” “Pawn” or “Knight.” 

    6. Shoreline Map

    Shoreline is one of the largest maps in Escape From Tarkov and is incredibly dangerous, especially if one ignores the warning signs and ends up in a minefield getting their legs blasted off.

    The raid time limit for the shoreline is 50 mins and the PMC limit is 10 to 13. A tip though: stay clear of the Gas Station as a newbie. Far too many players are enjoying camping in that area for some quick kills. 

    Landmarks for Orientation

    1. Resort
    2. Radio Hill
    3. Military/Minefield
    4. Radar Hill 
    5. Power Station 
    6. Pier/Gas Station 
    7. Loot Island
    8. Town
    9. Swamp

    Primary Extraction Locations

    1. Admin Basement
    2. Lighthouse
    3. Pier Boat 
    4. Road to Customs
    5. Tunnel 
    6. Svetliy Dead End 

    Where to Find the Boss?

    The boss of the map is called Sanitar and can be found in three key locations. The first location is the Port/pier Area, the second location is the Cottage area and finally, he can be found in the east or west wing of the Heath Resort.

    7. The Lab  Map

    the lab escape from tarkov

    The best thing about the map called The Labs is that it has perhaps the best per-raid loot potential compared to any other raid in Escape From Tarkov. Nonetheless, cunning players and tanky raiders abound, and traversing this map will be a challenge. It has a raid time limit of 40 minutes and a PMC limit of 6 to 10 players. 

    Landmarks for Orientation

    The major landmark for this area is the color coating of the rooms on the map itself. With that being Red, yellow, blue, orange, and green rooms that differentiate and orient players. 

    Primary Extraction Locations

    1. Medical Block Elevator
    2. Cargo Elevator 
    3. Main Elevator – Basement
    4. Sewage Conduit (Easiest) 
    5. Hangar Gate – Blue section
    6. Parking Gate – Yellow Section 
    7. Ventilation Shaft 

    Where to find the Boss?

    Fortunately, there isn’t any Boss encounter in this particular map. 

    8. Lighthouse Map

    Lighthouse escape from tarkov

    For a location called the Lighthouse, this map in Escape from Tarko is surprisingly small and far more manageable for new players. It has a raid time limit of 40 minutes and a PMC time limit of 9 to 12 players.

    If you do not want your legs to become barbeque it’s best to stay away from the minefields around the water treatment plant and stay on the road for this map. 

    Landmarks for Orientation

    1. Main Coast Road 
    2. Villas
    3. Water Treatment Plant
    4. The water- Keep to the left if you wish to go North and right if you wish to go South. 

    Primary Extraction Location

    1. Armoured Train Extract 
    2. Vehicle Extract 
    3. Shoreline Exit 
    4. Mountain Pass 
    5. Side Tunnel friendly Scav Exit 

    Where to Find the Boss?

    There is no particular boss in this map either. 


    That’s all the maps currently available in Escape From Tarkov. As mentioned earlier, we’ll be updating this list as soon as new maps are added to the game.
