Nikita Buyanov is the head of Battlestate Games, the studio behind Escape from Tarkov, and it seems next month there will be an announcement for a brand new game.
Buyanov has been teasing a lot lately about a title currently known as COR3. An interactive website allows users to review equipment and weapons stored in a bunker. The storyline is also detailed there.
“It’s 2251.
200 years ago, humanity was able to stand at the brink of darkness, survive and reverse mutual total destruction. The organization that secretly proclaimed itself as the Core was able to gather the remnants of everything human and turn back the tide of destruction, by convincing and uniting the governments of the world.”
There’s another site hosting a countdown has even been discovered. It will end on February 1, 2026, at 3 p.m. (GMT). It should be noted that this mysterious title is believed to be the work of Buyanov alone and that Battlestate Games may not be involved.
