The Courageous T26E3 Eagle 7

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
The T26E3 Eagle 7 is a dependable medium tank boasting high single-shot damage, nice armor penetration, a solid gun mantlet, and an impressive amount of HP. Thanks to its 10-degree depression angle, it can effectively take advantage of terrain irregularities. Another special feature of the T26E3 is the permanent camouflage inspired by a tank—the "Eagle 7" under the command of Sergeant Bob Earley—whose crew fought admirably at the Battle of Cologne on March 6, 1945.
A bundle with the T26E3 Eagle 7 will be available in the Store until October 5. The tank is fully equipped and ready for battle. Time to take command!

Operation Code: Fatal

The future. Cozy... bright... shining... At least, this is what you see after you've been enhanced with neural implants. You can hardly recall what reality actually looks like: smoke-filled days, endless nights, acidic puddles reflecting pink and blue neon lights instead of stars... Everything may be packed with technology, but the city lives by the same rule as it did hundreds of years before: take what's yours at any cost.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
Operation Code: Fatal includes two reward progressions, each of which is divided into 80 levels. The upper (silver) progression is available to all players, while the lower (gold) progression can only be accessed by Premium Pass owners. Increase the Level of your Pass to get rewards. To do so, complete missions and earn Chips: 10 Chips = 1 level. Although the Level increases automatically, you will need to collect the rewards manually.
  • CIS: from September 1, 8:00 (MSK) to September 29, 8:00 (MSK)
  • Europe: from September 1, 14:00 (CEST) to September 29, 14:00 (CEST)
  • North America: from September 1, 6:00 (PT) / 9:00 (ET) to September 29, 6:00 (PT) / 9:00 (ET)
  • Asia: from September 1, 14:00 (UTC+8) to September 29, 14:00 (UTC+8)

[h2]The Temptations of the Future
[/h2]In the world of Code: Fatal, nobody struggles to survive. Power, might, wealth, exclusive camouflage, avatars, profile backgrounds, top vehicles... These are the things that matter. All this can become yours if you earn Chips and increase the Pass Level.



[h2]The Best Weapons[/h2]
With a Premium Pass on hand, you'll get the tier IV Durchbruchswagen 2, a retro heavy tank from the old days, at Level 1. With a great amount of HP, high damage per shot, and not a single microcircuit, nobody will be able to hack and override it.



Then at Level 35 of the Pass, you'll gain access to the Tier VI Eraser BP44. There are two scary things in this world. The first is the kill code that erases your data. The second is the Eraser.



The drone scans the area in front of the tank before the battle. The cold fusion engine shines brighter depending on the speed. And while there's a compartment with riot control weapons hidden on the left part of the turret, the Eraser never gets to use them because the gun, a reliable though significantly reworked piece of firepower, is usually sufficient.

Thanks to its improved recoil and gas systems, high damage, and sturdy armor, the Eraser BP44 is the best weapon in this new world. High-tech, ruthless, extremely effective, and fatal.

[h2]Code: Fatal Profile Background[/h2]
A special decoration awaits you at Level 80. In the style of Operation Code: Fatal, your statistics screen will be decorated in neon and with the Eraser. The same picture will appear in the background of your nickname in battle results.



[h2]Resource Vaults
[/h2]They accumulate credits and Free XP as you win! Premium Pass gives you access to the Gold Vault, which starts off with 125 Gold and has an overall capacity of 2,000 Gold.
