Arena Breakout Infinite, the biggest competitor to Escape From Tarkov, will launch in Early Access on August 12 in the US and August 13 in the rest of the world.
After an explosive closed beta testing back in May 2024 that went live amid Tarkov’s Unheard Edition controversy, now Arena Breakout Infinite is ready to welcome everyone to Kamona, its fictional setting that will host three maps at launch.
While two maps from the closed beta, Farm and Valley, remain playable in the Early Access version, Morefun Studios will also add a new third map, Armory, which promises intense close-quarter gunfights in a small but dense environment. You can think of Armory as Arean Breakout Infinite’s version of Factory, a compact Tarkov map that is known for its brutal combat.
Arena Breakout Infinite Preload And Release Date And Time
Arena Breakout Infinite will launch simultaneously across all regions in the world. The game will be available on August 12 at 7 PM PT / 10 PM ET in North America. For gamers from eastern regions, Arena Breakout Infinite will be released on August 13 at 3 AM BST / 4 AM CEST / 12 PM AEST / 2 PM NZST.
The preload times will be exactly the same as above, but 24 hours earlier. So, North American gamers can start downloading the game’s data from August 11, while gamers from other regions will be able to preload on August 12 at the aforementioned times.
Keep in mind that you can only download the game from the official website via its own launcher. The Early Access version will not launch on Steam for now.
