It's Time for Update 1.23.1!



Attention Commanders!
Mark your calendars for the unveiling of Update 1.23.1 on January 10! This update brings you six brand-new Japanese heavies featuring double aiming mechanics and hydropneumatic suspension.

On top of that, brace yourselves for the return of the revamped Onslaught mode with the Season of the Crimson Pegasus, kicking off the day the update goes live. Finally, try out a pack of rebalanced low-tier vehicles in Random Battles, and get ready for the fourth Episode of Frontline, which will be released later. Let's dive in!

[h2]Introducing Brand-New Japanese Heavies[/h2]
Six fresh Japanese heavy tanks stand prepared to dominate the battlefield! These versatile brawlers feature well-sloped armor and robust turrets. The higher-tier tanks in this branch come equipped with two gameplay-changing mechanics: double aiming (gun cooling) and hydropneumatic suspension.

Double aiming allows the gun to fire more accurately if you wait a little after the reload. The second aiming circle shows this improved accuracy, which starts working as the gun cools down. Opt for higher DPM with slightly compromised accuracy, or shoot less frequently with pinpoint precision.
