Update 7.0

In a big way with a bang! This update features both our ideas for improvement and lots of player requests. Thank you for actively and genuinely caring about the game! The new update will delight you with its improved graphics, advanced settings, and even new tanks and effects. There are lots of cool things to see and things to try out!

[h2]Realism and beauty[/h2]Just take a look! Several remarkable graphics improvements make the atmosphere of battles more intense, including improved effects for object destruction, flames, smoke, dust, dynamic shadows, gun recoil, shell hit marks, and tank track traces. And don't worry. None of these new features affects gameplay or causes dramatic changes to the game's appearance. If your device can't pull off any of these effects, you can simply turn them off in the settings.



[h2]The British Tech Tree has grown[/h2]Three new Tier VIII–X light tanks are available for research! The impetuous FV301, Vickers Cruiser, and Vickers Light 105 just can't wait to get in your Garage.



[h2]Map changes[/h2]We've made some map improvements! Some bugs and spots where vehicles could get stuck were eliminated while the models of buildings and objects were adjusted. On top of that, we've removed unplanned positions on the maps Himmelsdorf, Castilla, Mayan Ruins, Naval Frontier, Winter Malinovka, Copperfield, New Bay, Dynasty's Pearl, Faust, Hellas, and Normandy.

[h2]You've got the power![/h2]There's no reason to hold back! It is now in your power to blow off the turrets of tank destroyers that were unlucky enough to have one! And you can do it in style! Just the way we like it. Making their epic departure from the battlefield are the Helsing, FV215b (183), FV4004 Conway, Charioteer, FV4005, Challenger, T30, T67, and T28 Defender.
