Players only received a new scav boss &#8220;Kaban&#8221; in August and we&#8217;re already receiving a new scav boss in Escape from Tarkov before the wipe in December.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The new scav boss will be featured specifically in Escape from Tarkov Arena mode coming before December. It&#8217;s yet to be confirmed whether or not the boss will be featured in the main game, however, lead developer Nikita is not closed off to the idea.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/-i4asg1Ynq-K20HBJ-PrtOYMed5fLnw7d7hnyrG7teU\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzMy82NTNiZDRiMTcwNTI0LUZsVW0zQ2NYb0FFUDc5by5qcGc\" alt=\"FlUm3CcXoAEP79o\" width=\"910\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/p>\n<h2>Escape from Tarkov Scav Boss: Heavy Killa&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>The name of the new scav boss within Escape from Tarkov is &#8220;Heavy Killa,&#8221; and as seen by the article cover image the boss is an emphasized version of Interchanges scav boss. Heavy Killa is just Killa but with a PKP and a significant amount of armor, leading players to already have a basic understanding of the boss&#8217;s characteristics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Killa in general is very confrontational and agile, making him the perfect boss in Arena mode, hence why Battlestate Games has chosen him. We expect Heavy Killa to spawn mid-round within Arena mode in an attempt to kill either team, similar to the juggernaut heading into the Gulag in Modern Warfare&#8217;s Warzone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"rsp-embed-container\" contenteditable=\"false\">\n<div style=\"left: 0px;
