[p]Commanders!

Steel Hunter mode is back from June 23 to June 30, and that means you can fight for survival and rewards in a perpetually shrinking map. Be the last vehicle standing and you can win some great prizes, not to mention the bragging rights of being the one who makes it out alive.

[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]Event Time:[/p][p] [/p][p]Ceasefire Times[/p][p]Steel Hunter is a last-man-standing battle royale where you or your Platoon fight in special vehicles on dynamic maps. Fight in a Platoon with 20 vehicles total or fly solo with 15 vehicles total competing to wipe out the rest of the competition.

Here are some things you should know before dropping into Steel Hunter:
[/p]

• [p]Eight special vehicles with unique abilities will join the hunt.
  [/p]
• [p]When playing in a Platoon, you can use in-game voice chat and the command wheel to communicate with other players. Make sure you have voice chat enabled in your settings.
  [/p]
• [p]The total battle time is up to 15 minutes. Before each battle, you can choose from several spawn points on the map.
  [/p]
• [p]Battles will unfold on three huge maps, whose playable areas will shrink with time. In Danger Zones, your vehicle won't receive damage, but pay attention to the countdown indicating when they will turn into Destruction Zones. Escape Destruction Zones as quickly as possible, as they will gradually cause damage until your vehicle is destroyed.
  [/p]
• [p]You'll be able to upgrade your vehicles while in battle and get stronger with each new tier.
  [/p]
• [p]Collect special objects (loot) that randomly spawn on the map (Consumables and Supplies) but also remain after destroyed vehicles (Spoils of War). These objects contain resources, Combat XP, Combat Ability charges, HP, and repairs for modules.
  [/p]
• [p]There is a special type of AI-controlled opponent in the mode called Marauders. They yield Combat XP and Spoils of War when destroyed. Note that they're displayed on your minimap as squares, not triangles like regular players.
  [/p]
• [p]Your mastery will be taken into account. The matchmaker aims to provide opponents of similar combat effectiveness for both platoons and solo players.
  [/p]

[p][/p][h2]Rewards[/h2][p]Epic rewards await at every stage of the event. Collect Steel Seals to complete the Steel Hunter Progression and unlock valuable goodies all along the way, including the exclusive “Tempered Steel” progressive 2D Style, with five progression levels and customizable inscriptions.[/p][p][/p][carousel][/carousel][hr][/hr][p]
Steel Hunter awaits—can you survive until the end? Glory and rewards await the victor.

[h2]Steel Hunter Returns[/h2]

Arriving three weeks after the update, the battle royale mode offers a chance to collect Progression Points and earn Steel Seals to spend on various rewards including a well-known but amazing progressive 2D style. Like the last time, you can play in Random Platoons with optional voice chat. Be prepared for tough competition: The skill-based matchmaker will be active for solo players and Platoons!

[h2]Battle Pass Season XVII: Combat Ready[/h2]

Start on the road to rich rewards that include fresh hi-tech 3D styles (for the M48A5 Patton, the FV230 Canopener, and the WZ-111 model 5A) and a trio of tough Commanders. Benefit from the features introduced in Season XVI (the Vault, Battle Pass Circuit, and Vouchers), and pick up a brand-new Object 265T or the ERAC 105 Proto for Tokens.
