The Tarkov Handbook

Icebreaker

3D Late-Game

A nuclear-powered icebreaker trapped in Tarkov's blockade — late-game access only, guarded by the mysterious Black Division.

Map

Features & Notes

  • Initially only accessible by transiting from Shoreline (at the pier) after unlocking it in the story chapter Boreas, for 400,000 Roubles.
  • Direct access from the location select screen unlocks after completing the questline Stick to It — the 400,000 Rouble fee still applies either way.
  • The number of enemies scales with the number of players in the raid.
  • Insurance does not apply: insured items lost here are never returned, even after the usual insurance timer.

On level 3, in the gym

Newer Black Division faction leader. Follower count scales with squad size (3 with 1 player, 4 with 2, 6 with 3) — expect a bigger fight in a full group. Exploit chokepoints and manage the guard group methodically rather than pushing his position directly.

On level 0

A one-off Icebreaker appearance — guarded here by 2 Rogues instead of his usual Goons squad (Big Pipe/Birdeye), which don't appear on this map. Treat him as a standalone encounter rather than expecting the full 3-boss Goons fight.
