The event takes place after Chapter 12 Emergency. PL centres around a sealed off submarine compound that houses the deadly weapon named "Starfish". The conflict escalates as G&K forces breach the facility, only to find that Sangvis Ferri and Paradeus have both gotten there first, and the operation quickly becomes a four-way battle. During the fierce combat, team DEFY learns about the base's deep secret.

* Although Polarized Light is considered the most impactful Event in the game, it was also left drastically unfinished with 2/3rds of the story being left untold. This is largely due to the sudden Covid-19 outbreak in February, causing majority of the citizens in china to self quarantine themselves for their own safety. This resulted the event lasting for 2 weeks longer than usual totalling in almost 6 weeks, but also resulted in Chapter 5 being unfinished and rushed. The epilogue of Polarized Light will be continued in Chapter 13 as a result.
* In CN, the event was originally announced to start on 16 January 2020 and end on 27 February, but with an unusual two-parts release where chapters 4 and 5 would only be released on 13 February, at the mid-point of the event.<ref>[https://weibo.com/5611537367/IpBUSjPXe Weibo]</ref> At the end of January, lockdown conditions started being implemented in Shanghai, where [[Sunborn]] is located, due to the outbreak of the Covid-19 virus. On 4 February, Sunborn announced that the second part of the event would be postponed by one week to 20 February, and end on 5 March.<ref>[https://weibo.com/5611537367/IsE8IAvCp Weibo]</ref> In another announcement on 19 February, it was announced that only chapter 4 would be available on 20 February, and that chapter 5 would only be implemented on 27 February, pushing back the end date of the event to 12 March.<ref>[https://weibo.com/5611537367/IuVj2xSCJ Weibo]</ref> The story of chapter 5 ended on a cliffhanger that was only resolved with the release of [[Guide:Campaign Menu|Campaign]] Chapter 13 on 7 May 2020.
** It'll be unlikely that the event will last this long when it reaches other servers.
** It didn't help [[Sunborn]]'s case when [[Yuzhong]] praised on Weibo how fun ''Escape from Tarkov'' is while the dates kept being pushed back.
