“Sky Odyssey” Launch Trailer

Finally, Naval Enduring Confrontation, Bullet Hell and fan-favorite Nuclear Escalation temporary events after a series of tests and improvements became new full-fledged permanent modes, marking a major new step for War Thunder gameplay evolution.

The MiG-35 combines the speed and maneuverability associated with the MiG-29 family with significantly more advanced avionics and weaponry. It features an active electronically scanned array radar with a wide field of view, a missile approach warning system and laser warning system, as well as a targeting pod for laser-guided weapons. Its air-to-air arsenal includes up to eight R-77-1 active radar homing missiles, while ground and naval targets can be engaged with weapons including Kh-38ML missiles, Grom-2 glide weapons and the new Kh-35U anti-ship missile.

At the other end of the jet era, F-102A Delta Dagger offers a very different style of aerial combat. The world’s first mass-produced supersonic delta-wing interceptor arrives for both the USA and Israel, with the latter receiving a Greek modification. The Delta Dagger has no guns whatsoever: instead, it can carry up to six AIM-4 Super Falcon air-to-air missiles, including infrared- and semi-active radar-guided variants, together with 24 unguided rockets housed in the missile bay doors. Its unusual armament encourages pilots to exploit the aircraft’s speed, strike quickly and disengage before the enemy can respond.

Tankers can take command of the EMBT, an experimental European Main Battle Tank combining the chassis of the German Leopard 2A7 with the turret of the French Leclerc S2. Available at Rank VIII for both Germany and France, the EMBT combines strong mobility and armor with a long-barreled 120 mm gun, an automatic loader and OFL 120 F1 APFSDS ammunition. Its Leopard-derived powerplant and comparatively low weight make it particularly mobile for a modern main battle tank, allowing it to perform both aggressive pushes and defensive maneuvers.

The Harimau brings a modern Indonesian light tank to the Japanese ground forces tree. Designed for mobility, reconnaissance and support, it features a tracked chassis, modern thermal imaging equipment, a laser warning system and laser rangefinder. Its Cockerill turret houses a 105 mm rifled gun with an automatic loader and access to DM63 APFSDS ammunition. The Harimau’s light protection makes head-on engagements risky, but its mobility, compact profile and rapid reload make it well suited to flanking, capturing objectives and supporting heavier vehicles.

Sky Odyssey is available now in War Thunder. More information about the update and the complete list of changes can be found on the official War Thunder website.

World of Warships Update 15.8: 11 Years of Glory Video

World of Warships: Legends is also kicking off the Fall season with a new update introducing a brand new campaign, the next phase of its Modern Era event, a nostalgic Retrofuturism event, and more.

Festive celebrations are in full swing in World of Warships, with the newly decorated Maritime Parade Port now visible to players upon login. As part of the Update, Festive Tokens can be earned through in-game activities and are exchangeable for new rewards, including the Japanese supercruiser Kurama in Early Access, special Red Steel Titan premium containers, and Battle of Santiago de Cuba containers.

A special 11 Years of Glory Event Pass has arrived to celebrate the occasion, too, with the first progression line featuring an 11 Years of Glory flag, the delmar_83 commander, as well as the Moonlight Wave and Radiant Wave permanent camouflages. Those with Admiralty Backing can earn even more rewards, including Premium British Tier VI cruiser Orion ‘44, the Cold Ray and Blazing Ray permanent camouflages, a new Press F enemy destruction effect, and General Greenwood Commander as an added bonus.

Let Loose in New Low-tier Operations
Three new PvE operations designed for low-tier ships have been added, offering players a new way to level up their skills and familiarize themselves with gameplay mechanics. Several versions of the operations feature more complex winning conditions, advanced mechanics, with secondary tasks also available depending on ship Tier, providing fresh challenges to players of all levels.

Holiday Convoy Enters its Next Chapter
To close out Update 15.8, players can look forward to the continuation of the 6-month Holiday Convoy event which launched last month, with daily token rewards up for grabs, plus a new Doubloon pack available in the armory. Early access to Pan-American destroyers also continues, alongside the launch of a new Marlborough B Dockyard, new seasons of Ranked Battles and Clan Battles, and new Brawls, with even more content arriving in the second and third weeks of the update.

Visit the World of Warships website for more game information.

New Campaign and Event Content Makes Waves in World of Warships: Legends

World of Warships: Legends welcomes the first update of this fall season with a wave of fresh content. The new four-week campaign features French Tier VIII Premium battleship Roussillon as its main prize, along with a number of other rewards. The next phase of the Modern Era event has started, adding three new PvP and two new PvE scenarios, where players will continue earning Blackline Crude to bring their faction to victory and get the new Commonwealth cruiser as the main reward.

Full Progress Ahead! – New Update in World of Warships: Legends Video

The Retrofuturism event is coming back, with new ships, skins, and Commander guises, bringing the perfect blend of progress and nostalgia to the high seas. This update also celebrates German Unity Day, featuring unique skins for German ships, a special mission, and a historical collection. Finally, the historic British Tier VII aircraft carrier Indomitable has arrived in the Store, available for purchase for Global XP.

‘Sky Odyssey’ Update Trailer

The new map is based on the Darwin Hill area near the settlement of Darwin, the site of fierce clashes between British commandos and Argentine forces. The archipelago’s landscape here is distinctive, with a treeless plain biome, rugged rocky coasts, and yellow thickets of gorse, making it a favorite among tourists from around the world. The buildings are predominantly single-story, and due to the harsh climate, almost every farm has its own greenhouses and fenced enclosures for poultry and livestock.

Greece’s aviation lineup spans from mid-20th-century aircraft all the way to some of the most modern combat jets currently serving in the Hellenic Air Force. The odyssey begins with the SB2C-5 Helldiver dive bomber, which was delivered to Greece in the spring of 1949. Closer to the modern era, we have the A-7H and A-7E, specialized land-based attack versions of the Corsair II developed specifically for Greece. These aircraft can carry a huge variety of weaponry for anti-tank missions, but can also attack air defense systems using Shrike anti-radiation missiles while still protecting themselves against fighters with Sidewinder air-to-air missiles. At the top of Greece’s lineup sits the Rafale EG (AESA). It’s a perfect blend of excellent flight performance, cutting-edge avionics, and the most advanced weaponry available.

Greece’s ground vehicle lineup includes useful imported vehicles such as the Soviet-made Osa-AKM and Tor-M1 SAM systems, along with the German Leopard 2A6 HEL modification — a unique variant built for the Greek Army, featuring reinforced upper glacis armor. Both the Greek aviation and ground vehicle subtrees will be part of the Israeli tech tree, and this combination will provide players with more tactical options.

A modernized “Super Lynx” development, the AW159 is a multi-role naval helicopter with a huge selection of air-launched munitions. Much like its predecessor, the Lynx, the Wildcat has a tremendous amount of speed and agility at its disposal, allowing it to quickly get into position and reposition as needed. The weapons available to the Wildcat allow you to switch roles mid-game based on your team’s needs. The Spike NLOS is better suited for destroying tanks, while the Martlet is more effective against SAM/SPAA systems, helicopters, and lighter vehicles. This makes the Wildcat particularly useful in the later stages of a match, when it can clear out enemy air defenses and give your team’s aviation more freedom to operate.

More information on the update’s content is available on the official War Thunder website.

World of Tanks: HEAT Season 2 Overview Trailer

Gambit is the latest Defender-class Agent to join the fight this season, built to hold the front line and punish enemies who overcommit. His passive, Feedback Loop, applies a stacking debuff to vehicles that damage him, eventually disabling their abilities, with stronger effects at close range. His Ultimate, Iron Curtain, deploys defensive drones that temporarily boost health and provide defensive buffs to Gambit and nearby allies, helping his squad withstand heavy fire.

HEAT Season 2 Cinematic Trailer

Agent Gambit arrives with two unique tanks, both of which can be earned for free through the Battle Pass track:

• M60A3E2 – Energized Plating temporarily boosts protection and track durability, while Blast Projectors unleashes a charged concussion blast against nearby enemies, trading greater damage for increased risk to the vehicle.
• T-72SH – Disruption Field Generator scrambles enemy targeting systems, while Tesla Discs deploys devices that deal pulse damage and jam nearby enemies.

Following her debut at launch, Agent Ember receives her second vehicle, the M1150 ABV, a flamethrower-focused tank built for close-range combat that uses Line Charges and Incendiary Launchers to inflict heavy mid-range damage.

Season 2 also introduces a new map, Inferno One, a once-thriving town in an alternate-history Iceland where a catastrophic volcanic eruption has turned the landscape into a deadly warzone. The map’s safe areas constantly change shape as rivers of molten lava invade the battlefield, forcing players to adapt as the magma encroaches.

Battles are also getting bigger with a new 20v20 Conquest format, bringing 40 players together on a single map:

• Same rules as the existing 10v10 Conquest, with twice the players
• 5 bases up for grabs at once
• Unlimited respawns to get back in there and keep fighting
• As with Plant/Defuse, these battles will run during peak weekend hours only at the start, and will be expanded over the course of the season

The Fire and Ash Battle Pass runs for the duration of the season. As with all seasons in HEAT, all rewards can be earned for free through regular play. An optional Premium Battle Pass is also available for 1000 HEAT-Coins, allowing rewards to be unlocked in any order.

Additionally, from Season 2 onward, each unfinished Battle Pass stays playable after its season ends, and every reward on it stays obtainable. This is called the Archive, and will remain active for future seasons, with Premium status remaining on a specific Battle Pass whenever it is purchased.

For more information, please visit Steam or via the games official website!

Watch the Infantry CBT#3 Trailer HERE.

The new map is four times larger than previous infantry locations and is inspired by the landscapes of Central Africa. It is built around battles for five capture points. During this testing phase, players will encounter a wide range of modern military hardware, including M1A2 SEP V2 and T-90M main battle tanks, AH-64A and Mi-28N helicopters, 2S6 and LAV-AD air defense systems, as well as modern small arms used by the USA and Russia.

To support large-scale engagements on “Kivu,” new gameplay rules for bigger maps are being tested. Players will be able to respawn not only at their base but also at capture points already secured by their team, making movement across the vast battlefield more dynamic. War Thunder will also introduce its first troop transport vehicles — light cars capable of carrying up to five soldiers at once — allowing faster deployment to key objectives. In addition, new UAV control range settings have been added for large-scale battles.

Arcade Battles will return to infantry combat during this third testing phase. The marker display logic has been reworked: markers are now shown only when a player has a direct line of sight to an enemy model, and they disappear when the target is obscured by smoke, explosions, trees, other obstacles, or is at extreme distance. This change improves readability in Arcade mode while preserving the importance of cover and concealment. Movement speed has also been adjusted — heavily equipped soldiers move faster than in Realistic Battles, making the mode more dynamic.

Significant changes have also been made to soldier classes. Weapon presets have been revised, and specialized equipment such as RPGs, MANPADS, and drones is no longer available to every soldier. As a result, players will need to choose more carefully between the four available classes and tailor their loadouts to the situation on the battlefield.

Players who have not yet joined the test can apply for access on the official War Thunder website.

HEAT Season 1: Lost Eden Cinematic Trailer

Lost Eden introduces Flair, a new Marksman-class Agent specializing in stealth and misdirection. Her passive ability, Signature Masking, keeps her hidden from enemy targeting systems, while her Ultimate, Echo Proxy, deploys a controllable duplicate vehicle that can be used to confuse opponents, set up ambushes, and reposition across the battlefield.

Agent Flair arrives with two unique deception-based tanks, both of which can be earned for free through the Battle Pass:

• Leopard 2FK (ATGM launcher) – Feign Death lets it disguise itself as wreckage while still moving; Electro-Optical Jammers cut enemy targeting accuracy.
• Leopard 2KST (autoloader) – Active Camo makes it nearly undetectable; EMP Trap drops an area-denial device that damages and slows enemies.

The battle moves to its latest map, New Eden, a sprawling desert battlefield built around the remnants of a forgotten agricultural megaproject. Massive biodomes rise above the sands while abandoned research facilities provide cover, creating a map that supports both long-range duels and close-quarters engagements.

HEAT Season 1: Lost Eden Gameplay Trailer

The new Battle Pass runs from July 1 to September 2. As with all seasons in HEAT, all rewards can be earned for free through normal play. An optional Premium Battle Pass is also available for 1000 HEAT-Coins, allowing rewards to be unlocked in any order.

In addition, a dedicated quality-of-life update planned for mid-July will introduce several community-requested features:

• Test driving any vehicle before purchase
• A Credits boost for all players
• An option to disable Ultimate ability cinematics

Gaijin Entertainment announces the release of Heavy Cavalry, a new major content update for the online military action game War Thunder. The update brings dozens of new ground, air and naval vehicles, including M1A2 SEP v3 and Т-90M Arena-M MBTs, introduces anti-radiation missiles and electronic support measures to expand high-tier combined battles, and adds new machines for many nations, including Indonesian Leopard 2RI, Argentinian IA 58A Pucará and Serbian J-22M1A Orao. Naval battles are reinforced as well, with the German warship Admiral Scheer joining the fleet.

‘HEAVY CAVALRY’ UPDATE TRAILER

One of the headline features of Heavy Cavalry is the arrival of anti-radiation missiles and electronic support measures. These new tools give pilots a specialized way to hunt radar-guided air defense systems. Anti-radiation missiles are designed to detect enemy radar emissions and guide themselves toward the source, while ESM equipment helps pilots locate signal sources, select targets and provide missile guidance. The first wave features weapons such as the AGM-88 HARM, AS-37 ARMAT, ALARM, YJ-91, CM-102, LD-10, and Soviet Kh-family missiles, including a ramjet-powered model.

Aviation fans can now take the IA 58A Pucará into battle, the first domestically designed and produced Argentine aircraft to appear in War Thunder. This compact twin-turboprop ground attack aircraft combines 20 mm cannons, machine guns, bombs, rockets and even a torpedo option. While not fast, the Pucará is agile, responsive and well suited for close air support, especially in Ground Battles where its flexible payload can be used against a wide range of targets.

More information on the Heavy Cavalry update is available on the War Thunder official website.

Gaijin Entertainment and Darkflow Software announce Operation Neptune, a new major content update for Enlisted, the squad-based online shooter dedicated to the key battles of World War II. The update brings players to Normandy, expands the research trees with new weapons and vehicles, and significantly improves the look and feel of combat with reworked explosions, ricochets, tracers, animations and visual effects.

“Operation Neptune” Update Trailer

The centerpiece of Operation Neptune is the new Omaha location, inspired by the Allied landings on Omaha and Sword beaches. The new battlefield offers varied terrain, where trenches, pillboxes, artillery craters, barbed wire and coastal batteries create new tactical opportunities for both attackers and defenders. Battles will also move beyond the beach itself, taking players through battered urban districts, rural areas, farms, factories and warehouses, each demanding a different approach to movement, cover and squad tactics.

Operation Neptune also adds new research-tree equipment for several armies. The USSR receives the SU-122 self-propelled gun, built on the T-34 chassis and armed with a gun capable of threatening both infantry and armored targets. Germany adds the Nashorn tank destroyer, equipped with the powerful 88 mm PaK43 cannon, as well as the Suomi KP/-31 (SJR), an improved version of the famous Finnish submachine gun with better accuracy and a 71-round magazine. Japan receives the Type 4 90 mm anti-tank launcher, while the United States adds the F7F-1 Tigercat, a fast twin-engine heavy fighter armed with 20 mm cannons, Browning machine guns and bombs.

The update also makes Enlisted’s battles more spectacular and readable. Tank destruction effects have been reworked, including improved ammunition rack fires and turrets that can be blown off by internal explosions. These turrets are not just cosmetic: they can crush soldiers unlucky enough to be standing beneath them. Flying debris now leaves smoke trails, fires can spread to nearby grass, and vehicle armor penetrations produce more visible sparks, smoke and flames, helping players better understand the result of their shots in the heat of battle.

Aircraft destruction has received similar attention. When planes are destroyed in the air, they now produce more powerful explosions, while torn-off parts scatter more naturally and leave fiery trails behind them. Small arms bullets can now ricochet off armored vehicles, and the update also improves muzzle flashes, dust from impacts, fire animations and other battlefield effects. Finally, tracers now have a more natural teardrop shape, with thin fading tails, brighter heads and thickness that better reflects the projectile’s caliber. This makes incoming and outgoing fire easier to read.

On PlayStation 4, PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One, visual presets have been updated to improve image quality while keeping the same FPS target. PlayStation 4 now uses high quality Temporal Hyper Resolution at 1080p, Xbox One switches to 720p upscaled to 1080p with high quality THR, and PlayStation 4 Pro now outputs a 4K image. On PC, ray tracing has received under-the-hood CPU optimizations with better multithreading and caching, improving performance on systems with a weaker CPU and a strong GPU.

More information about Enlisted is available at the official website, or on Steam.
