War Thunder is a 2013free-to-playvehicular combat multiplayer video game produced byGaijin Entertainment forMicrosoft Windows,macOS,Linux,PlayStation 4,Xbox One,PlayStation 5,Xbox Series X/S,Oculus, andVive. It was first released in November 2012 as anopen beta with a worldwide release in January 2013; it had its official release on December 21, 2016.[12][7] A spinoff game calledWar Thunder Mobile (also known asWar Thunder Edge[13]) was released in 2023 forAndroid andiOS.

Developed as a "flying simulation game", it was previously namedWar Thunder: World of Planes,[14] but due to its similarity withWargaming'sWorld of Warplanes, it was changed to its present name in 2012.[15][16] Initially, Gaijin claimed after the game was announced that it was anApril Fools joke before confirming its existence in June that same year.[17]

War Thunder won several awards following its release, winning Best Simulation Game at theGamescom 2013 Awards as well as winning Best Game, Best Developer, Best Technology and Best Sound at theKRI 2013 Awards.[18][19] In 2019,War Thunder was among the most played games onSteam with over 25,000 concurrent players.[20][a] As of November 1, 2022,War Thunder had over 70 million registered players on all platforms combined, out of which 160,000 playconcurrently.[21] In February 2024,War Thunder set a new record of over 250,000 concurrent players.[22]

Gameplay

War Thunder is based aroundcombined arms battles on air, land, and sea.[23] Vehicles range from pre-World War I (ships only)[24] to the modern day,[25] as well as tanks that are not technically in service yet,[26] with an emphasis onWorld War II,[27][28] theVietnam War, and theCold War.[29] Players can control aircraft, ground vehicles, and warships from nations with a set oftechnology trees attached to them. The game also incorporates other nations. These nations are included either as "sub-trees" (parts of the research trees of bigger nations being dedicated to a smaller nation) or premium vehicles, purchasable with real money or in-game currency.

Vehicles are divided into three main categories: aviation, ground, and fleet, while game modes are divided between arcade, realistic, and simulator.[30] Aviation is divided betweenregular aircraft andhelicopters, fleet is divided between "Bluewater", ships from the size ofdestroyers tobattlecruisers andbattleships and "Coastal", smaller ships and boats such asmotor torpedo boats,motor gunboats,submarine chasers, andfrigates.[31] A single-player mode that focuses on historical battles, and aco-op wave survival mode for battlingAI ground vehicles and aircraft, are also available.[30]

InWar Thunder, the player takes control of a vehicle, depending on the type of battle. That player is in full control of their vehicle until it is destroyed by the enemy team. The objective of most battles is to accumulate points, either by destroying enemy vehicles or capturing strategic positions on the map.[citation needed]

Events

Events inWar Thunder provide custom missions, usually based on one of the three main game modes, but with alternative settings regarding allowed vehicles, mission specifics, etc. Examples are the recreation of historical battles by restricting available vehicles (e.g.,Battle of Britain).

Traditionally, the developers prepare unconventional events forApril Fools' Day. These events are used to test planned game mechanics before their broader release to the player base.[citation needed]

  • For 2015, a new game mode called "Unrealistic Battles" featuredinflatable rubber tanks firing potatoes and carrots.[32] The "tanks" also had overall hitpoints instead of the usual separate modules, parodying the gameplay ofWorld of Tanks, a competitor toWar Thunder.
  • For 2016, ahead of the announcement of the naval forces update,War Thunder offered playable 18th-century sailing ships fighting in theCaribbean.[33]
  • For 2017,War Thunder made playable rank IX main battle tanks and attack helicopters. Available vehicles were theLeopard 2A5,AH-64 Apache (Designated as GM-64 and operated by Germany in-game),Gepard,T-90A,Mi-35 Hind-E andZSU-23-4 Shilka.[34]
  • The 2018 event, named "Silent Thunder", was based underwater in an Arctic Ocean map, with three playable nuclear submarines: theVanguard-class,Virginia-class, andYasen-class.[35]
  • The 2019 event, named "Earth Thunder", took place in a fictional American city named "Green Hills" and had players useUFOs.[36]
  • In 2020, Gaijin changed the name of the game to "Space Thunder", featuring space battles.[37]
  • In 2021, Gaijin held 2 events, "Tailspin" and "Warfare 2077". Tailspin was a game mode that took place on a map called "Cape Somerset Bay" that had a cartoon art style with aircraft directly inspired by the showTaleSpin; one aircraft was also inspired byStudio Ghibli'sPorco Rosso.[38] Players took control of new planes belonging to the "Republic of Air Pirates" faction.[39] Warfare 2077 was a futuristic game mode that took place on the "Launch Facility" map and allowed the players to take control of futuristic tanks and unmanned aerial vehicles, teasing the September 2022 addition of drones to the game.[40] Its advertising and name were similar to the (at the time) recently releasedCyberpunk 2077.
  • In 2022, Gaijin introduced aDune-inspired game mode called "Worm Thunder: Children ofArachis" which involved two factions fighting overcinnamon in the desert while also avoiding being eaten by a giantsandworm.[41]
  • In 2023, Gaijin introduced "Mobile Infantry", an event involving battles involving infantry wearingcombat exoskeletons, main battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and attack helicopters. Two nations were playable in the conflict, being the United States and Russia. The event was the first timefire-and-forget ATGMs were featured in the game, as the ATGM operator for the US side was fitted withSpike missiles.[42][43]
  • In 2024, Gaijin introduced "Mad Max" style vehicles partially based onGaijin's other gameCrossout. The event was called "Mad Thunder". "Mad Thunder" gameplay included "you can find ancient electronics, scrap metal, vehicle parts and armor parts, which are all needed to improve your combat vehicles and to craft new ones."[44]
  • In 2025, Gaijin introducedWorld War One vehicles and aircraft with two playable sides: theTriple Entente and theCentral Powers. They also added a map and obtainable World War One vehicles that could be used after the event. The event was a precursor to their next gameAces of Thunder.[citation needed]

Other notable examples include "March to Victory", introducing playablemecha composed of tank parts;[45] "The Pony Nation", introducing the world ofMy Little Pony,Equestria, as a sixth playable faction (2013);[46] "Gaijilla", featuring a battle against a giantGodzilla-like snail (2014);[47] and Atomic Thunder, featuring vehicles from the video gameAtomic Heart (July 2023).

In August 2020, the game had atank biathlon-style event featuring select Russian and Chinese tanks performing tasks on a tank range map, with the objective to finish in 1st place after navigating obstacles and destroying targets. The event was partnered with the Information Systems Department of theRussian Ministry of Defense.[48] Logos advertising the game also appeared during the event, notably painted on the side of the tanks during the real biathlon. The event was teased on August 17 with a YouTube video posted to the game's official YouTube Channel, as well as on the official website.[49]

History

War Thunder atIgroMir 2013
War Thunder atGamescom 2014

Early development and closed beta

The development of the game, then under the nameWorld of Planes, began in 2009.Gaijin Entertainment used its experience with its previous combat flight simulator games, such asIL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey,Apache: Air Assault, andBirds of Steel, in the development. The title was changed toWar Thunder during the closed beta due to confusion with competitorWorld of Warplanes.[50]

Open beta and release

Promotion ofWar Thunder: Knights of the Sea at Gamescom 2016

Open beta testing started on November 1, 2012 (for users from the Russian Federation; the global beta launched January 28, 2013) for Windows PC with about 200 aircraft and 600,000 players. On May 15, 2014, at 6 million registered players, the first ground forces for Germany and the Soviet Union were introduced.[51] Later added were the American,[52] British,[53] and Japanese ground forces.[54]

In 2017, Italy was added as a playable faction.[55][56] AtGamescom 2018, the planned addition of helicopters into the game was announced, and by late 2018, helicopters were fully implemented.[57][58]

In 2022,Tencent announced that the Chinese version of the game published by Tencent would be discontinued on October 17.[59]

Accusations of supporting an anti-Ukrainian YouTube channel

In January 2021, after the logos ofWar Thunder were seen in a video by pro-separatist YouTube channel "High Caliber Mayhem", Gaijin was accused of indirectly financingRussian-backed separatist forces in thewar in Donbas.[60][61] High Caliber Mayhem has denied any links to the separatist forces and published an explanation claiming that all the money from all advertisements on that channel were spent on humanitarian aid for civilians. The video showing theWar Thunder advertisement was removed from High Caliber Mayhem's YouTube channel.

In response to the controversy, Gaijin stated "We do not provide political support to anyone anywhere. We know nothing about politics and prefer to stay out of it. Our agency that ordered an ad in the video in question took it down when they realized they might drag us into a political discussion."[62]

Review bombing

Following an in-game economic change in May 2023 which drastically reduced rewards given for battle actions and an increase in post-battle costs, a large amount ofWar Thunder players began revolting against the developers by review bombing the game on multiple platforms, such as Steam and Google.[63] In response, Gaijin has since reverted the planned economic change, posted statements regarding the issue and player progression,[64][65] announced a revision of the economy for mid-summer 2023[66] and issued an apology for the initial controversial changes.[67]

Military training tool

In 2020,Task & Purpose reported[68] that the US 1st Cavalry Division tankers were usingWar Thunder for training during COVID-19 quarantine. After looking at several games includingWorld of Tanks, the soldiers found that War Thunder best met their needs. In 2021, a video of Republic of Korea's 3rd Armored Brigade usingWar Thunder for the Command & Control training session was made public.[69]

In January 2024, a UkrainianM2 Bradley IFV gunner of the 47th Brigade, referred to only asSerhiy, took down a RussianT-90M main battle tank by shooting specific weak points in the tank's armor, claiming that videogames taught him exactly where to shoot.[70] According to media,[71][72]War Thunder is the only game that matches this description.Task & Purpose said:[73] "People knowWar Thunder for leaking classified documents, but now it might actually be known as the game that has the first confirmed kill."

In May 2025, a drone operator fromNew Zealand, referred to as Cass, destroyed[74] aT-72 tank in a weak spot he knew from his game experience, as "the modelling of tank armour" inWar Thunder "is quite realistic".

Sensitive document leaks

On several occasions, users of theWar Thunder forum have shared restricted and/orclassified documents during discussions about the accuracy of the vehicles depicted. In all cases, offending posts are removed by the moderators, and users are warned against sharing such documents. Anton Yudintsev, founder of Gaijin Entertainment, has stated that the development team is never exposed to the contents, reminding users that "it's both illegal and pointless, so they should never do that".[75] Gaijin's policy regarding technical information is

IN BRIEF: You are prohibited from publishing any Classified information, Export-restricted military-technical data, or other defense-related information...

— Gaijin, Gaijin Community Guidelines: Military Restrictions

Although users disclose non-public information to win an argument or persuade Gaijin to make changes toWar Thunder vehicles, doing so prevents the company from implementing such changes.[76] In January 2023,Raytheon denied media reports thatsecurity clearancebackground checks for jobs at the defense contractor investigate whether applicants playWar Thunder.[77][78]

Gaijin often jokes about the phenomena. Notably in the "No sekrit dokuments, please." decal which is a parody of the "No!" (Russian: "Нет!") poster, a 1954 Sovietanti-alcohol poster.
