• The list of unavailable vehicles has been updated.
• Role Skills have been adjusted for the mode in Tier VIII vehicles.
• Minor changes have been made to maps.

Crucible

• A new feature has been added: the Crucible, which tests players with series of missions that offer valuable rewards.
• Each series consists of consecutive missions, with the main reward granted for completing the final mission. Every mission in a series is completed in a single battle.
• Players can activate one Crucible series at a time. Once activated, it cannot be paused.
• Series of missions are available for a limited time and are replaced periodically. Activated series that are expired or incomplete count as failed. Some series can be completed once, while others are repeatable.
• Each series includes a number of shields. Failing a mission destroys one shield, and the final mission must be completed before all shields are lost.
• Crucible missions can only be completed in Random Battles in Tier VI–XI vehicles.

Frontline

• Platoons for Frontline can now no longer be formed with more than one autocannon vehicle, including Czech autocannon light tanks and American autocannon medium tanks. This only affects Platoon formation in the Garage: Platoon members can select vehicles without any restrictions once they enter battle.
• The visuals on the Combat Reserves screen have been reworked.

• The Last Stand: Terra Nord event has been added on the Nordskar map.
• The event features two new enemies: Bastion and Archer.

Changes to System Requirements

To ensure the game's continued development and optimal performance for as many players as possible, the system requirements from Update 2.3.1 will be:

• Minimum:
  • CPU: Intel Core i5-3330 or AMD FX-6300 (screen resolution 1280x768)
  • GPU: Nvidia GTX 660 or AMD Radeon R9 270 (screen resolution 1280x768)
  • RAM: 8 GB
  • OS: 64-bit Windows 10 or 11
  • Free disk space: 70 GB
• Recommended:
  • CPU: Intel Core i3-9100F or AMD Ryzen 3 3100
  • GPU: Nvidia GTX 1650 or AMD Radeon RX 580
  • RAM: 16 GB
  • OS: 64-bit Windows 10 or 11
  • Free disk space: 120 GB

After the update, players whose hardware met the previous minimum system requirements will still be able to run the game. However, going forward, we will no longer be able to fully guarantee game functionality and performance for players whose hardware does not meet the new minimum requirements.

Bot-Assisted Matchmaking in Common Tests

In Random Battles, only during Common Tests, if a player has been waiting in the queue for a long time while using a Tier I–XI vehicle, a battle may be created with human players and supplemented with bots.
