While the wipe was expected by fans, there’s a new feature coming to Escape from Tarkov which has fans worried. A new trailer for Patch 0.15.0.0 was released on August 14, which teased everything new that’s coming to Escape from Tarkov.

Among those upcoming features, was the ability to set up grenade trip mines. These tri🃏p mines can be placed anywhere, allowing players to set up traps, lu𓃲re people in, and wait for the eventual bang.

While grenade trip mines are not something people have not heard of, their inclusion in Escape from Tarkov does raise eyebrows.

There’s mixed feelings about the upcoming grenade tripwires, with some players looking forward to making use of the new strategy. Here 𓄧are some of the best reactio⭕ns:

Well, it remains to be seen how the introduction of tripwires will really turn out, but one thing is for sure, you really need to be on your toes at every corner more than ever now in Escape from Tarkov.
