Escape from Duckov (hereafter Duckov), developed by Team Soda, is set to run an official collaboration with its “original” counterpart, Escape from Tarkov.

Battlestate Games announced the partnership with Duckov via its official X (formerly Twitter) account on the 31st. The post drew attention by pairing the brief phrase “Coming soon” with an image showing a Tarkov character greeting Duckov’s duck character as the two chat, “Wanna party up?”

The star of this collaboration, Duckov, is a game that playfully parodies Tarkov. While featuring cute duck characters, it still preserves the tense, adrenaline-pumping gameplay that defines the original, and it’s been praised for lowering the barrier to entry by implementing Tarkov’s complex systems in a lighter, more accessible form. On the back of these strengths, Duckov is currently rated “Overwhelmingly Positive” on Steam.

Specific details about the collaboration are expected to be revealed in an upcoming announcement. Among players, speculation continues—some think Tarkov’s notoriously infamous bosses could appear in Duckov in duck form, while others predict that an extremely ferocious “duck boss” might be added to Tarkov as a limited-time event.
