We have started the installation of patch 0.12.11.7. In this patch we have upgraded the game engine from Unity 2018 to Unity 2019.
Upgrading the game engine to a newer version is a complex technical process that may affect all game systems and mechanics, as well as graphics and service modules.
The size of the patch is 7 GB. The reason for this is that during the transition to the new engine version, we have optimized the structure of storing the game data.
This patch doesn’t contain new mechanics, content, or visual changes. However, the transition to a newer version of Unity will allow us to use new graphics, gameplay, and network technologies in the future and will also facilitate further optimization of the game client and speed up the development of Escape from Tarkov.
