Today's update is timed with a new in-game event.
As always, it begins with a task, this time the first task is given by the Skier.
You will find a list of quests, their descriptions, tasks and rewards in this article, information will be added and updated.
Tasks:
1. Skier - "The Tarkov Mystery"
You need to find a special flash drive. According to some information from players, you can find them anywhere where regular flash drives can spawn (drawers, safes, jackets, Scavs). Take the flash drive out of the raid and hand it to the Skier. Spoiler - you will need few of those, so try to save any extra flashdrives you find.
