How To Increase Stash Space In Escape From Tarkov

Escape from Tarkov may be a first-person extraction shooter, but it is not everyone’s cup of tea. Unlike games like Counter Strike 2 or Call of Duty, Escape from Tarkov is a survival game where players must have an effective strategy if they wish to come out on top. One such way of doing so involves managing your stash space.

As you play and survive raids, you will come to realize the size of your stash will become a limiting factor as you collect items in Escape from Tarkov. Stash space is a big problem, and many players do not know how to upgrade it, so this guide will illustrate how to do just that — along with other useful information.

How To Upgrade Stash Space In Escape From Tarkov

The starting stash space you have depends on the version of the game you own:

Escape from Tarkov: Standard Edition – Basic Stash 10x28 Cells.
