Key Update Highlights
⭐️ Battle Pass Update
The season's headline feature — the introduction of Battle Pass Credits and the launch of the BP Store.
Instead of fixed rewards, you now choose what to get: equipment from the current season or items from past ones. Grab the ship, strike fighter, or weapon you actually need — whenever it makes sense for your fleet.
How BP Credits Work
• Credits carry over between seasons — save them up and claim valuable rewards when you're ready
• The currency is automatically converted to Gold on January 1st — make sure to spend it before the end of the year
• Each season features a bonus: 30% off your first purchase in each category
Battle Pass Store
The inventory is organized into convenient categories:
• Ships
• Aviation
• Equipment
All rewards are clearly structured so you can quickly find and select the items you want.
Battle Pass Structure
• The Pass retains the familiar 40 stages with free and premium tracks
• BP Credits complement your progress rather than replace it — you still earn resources and rewards as you advance, then exchange credits for equipment
Additional Details
• Even the free track awards BP Credits, which you can save and spend on any item in the store
• VIP Pass owners instantly receive one unique season reward (in this update, the new DJT 4547 railgun)
• As before, Pass resets are available for Gold: once you complete it, you can run through it again to earn even more Credits and resources. The number of resets has been reduced from 5 to 2, but the total amount of equipment obtainable has actually increased
• Items from the BP Store become available for sale on the Market 30 days after being obtained
⭐️ UI and Window Information Updates
The Battle Pass, Season Storage, Daily Missions, and Store windows have been completely redesigned: the interface is now cleaner and more intuitive, with key information easier to read at a glance.
⭐️ Port Accessibility
Port selection is now available to all players — an active Premium account is no longer required!
⭐️ Map Changes and Scene Improvements
Viking Bay Map Remaster
The map has received a full visual and graphical overhaul. We've updated textures, added vegetation, and improved the quality of structures — all while preserving the familiar tactical island layout.
• Offer Scene Improvements
The old 2D city scene for ships has been replaced with a modern scene featuring an abstract projection.
A brand-new, highly detailed hangar scene has been added for showcasing aircraft.
⭐️ Authorization (PC Version)
Players can now choose their preferred login method at startup — either a Gaijin or Artstorm account — eliminating any potential confusion. If you enter credentials for the wrong account, the system will automatically suggest trying a different login method.
The Steam version continues to support login via the Steam platform itself, as well as both of the above account systems.
⭐️ Rebalance
A rebalance of several ships and equipment has been carried out, aimed at improving the performance of vehicles that have been in the game for a long time.
Battle Pass: "Heart of the Machine"
The new Battle Pass season is available from July 1 to July 31. 40 stages of rewards await, each unlocking valuable resources, upgrade points, gold, and exclusive cosmetic content.
Complete Pass stages, earn the seasonal currency — Battle Pass Credits — and exchange them in the dedicated BP Store for any vehicle or equipment available there.
Battle Pass Premium unlocks an additional premium reward track. Earn even more BP Credits, gold, dollars, and upgrade points, and unlock exclusive seasonal camouflages and avatars.
Battle Pass VIP unlocks a separate track of unique VIP rewards, including exclusive seasonal equipment, legendary cosmetics, and a bonus set of BP Credits!
