Escape From Tarkov Interchange Map Guide

YouTuber 1Bird posted a great overview of the map. You first need to turn on the power in order to access certain sections in the mall with good loot. The power station is in the northeast corner of the map. Be very mindful about where you spawn; in some spots, other players might be close enough to attack you pretty quickly. I recommend waiting out the initial mall rush by about 5 minutes. The numbers of other players should thin out a bit.

If you start in the top right of the map, 1Bird suggests finding hidden caches in that area, shown here.

There is also a boss that spawns in the mall, Killa. It's a pretty tough boss that you're better off avoiding if you're a beginner player.
