How many raids do you have under your belt? You likely have thousands if you’re like a few of us here at Insider Gaming. They’re not all memorable runs, though you can bet that encountering one of the many Escape From Tarkov bosses immediately boosts your adrenaline and creates a tense atmosphere. It’s like that one scene from Boondock Saints. There was a firefight!
All Escape From Tarkov Bosses Currently in the Game
Escape From Tarkov features 13 unique bosses, with Santa Claus counting as the fourteenth, but only during the holiday event. They’ll spawn across maps, usually appearing with heavily armed guards ready to mess you up if you come too close. Some prefer to travel alone, like Killa and Tagilla. Whether they bring hype men or not, a few well-placed grenades should remove your target and leave you with high-end loot!

They’re relatively new in-game bosses, like for a Halloween event, that you must locate and neutralize as part of The Graven Image.
